Hi, I have a suggestion for the custom battles mode. Basically this is an optional "Treaty" setting. Here you can set maximum tonnage and gun calibre (to reflect the various historical interbellum naval treaties). It basically only needs a toggle, max tonnage slider and a max calibre slider, maybe per shipstype, maybe just for BB/BC. The reason for this is so that you can: 1. Make historical ships without getting swatted by some unbalanced AI built megaship. 2. Make it a bit more challenging to create a ship that fits tonnage and guns. This way you have to chose a bit more between speed, armour and guns. Even try to use more modern setups on an older hull (refit ships basically) Let me know what you think

This post is to be used a reference to the Declaration agreed upon by French clans ([LBORK][LMN][OMG][PURGE]) in PVP2 involving the Sverige, Danmark-Norge, and France Nations. We talked to the Sverige and Danmark-Norges separately about their goals, and this is the product of our discussions. The French Nation (herein referred to as "we"), will not take any additional ports in the region spanning between the Freetown of Vieques, and Plymouth. We shall not interfere with Sverige or Danmark-Norge players while either of the aforementioned nations have an active conquest flag. We can, and will engage in PVP around the area if we so choose, but not to the extent of harassment. Any French-held ports marked in YELLOW (See Figure 1) can be attacked by either the Danmark-Norge or Sverige Nations, without interference from [LBORK], [LMN], [OMG], and [PURGE]. Declaration is void if Sverige or Danmark-Norge attack Frederiksted or Fajardo, respectively. (Each contains Stone and Silver, which are essential to each nation's shipbuilding efforts). Declaration is void if Sverige or Danmark-Norge attack "Protected French Ports" (See Figure 1). Figure 1:
