TheAgend47 Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 TheAgend47 is attacked by the Frenchman King of Crown at St Augustin and the US player Sparkydog jumps in at the Frenchman. During the battle, this Fleet ship begins to attack and boarding comes on. See photo. If there is an error in the game or the action of the player Sparkydog, I ask for appropriate measures. thx ...

Sparkydog Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Was trying to help Agend47 after he got attacked- he had smuggler flag on and battle was listed as pirate vs french. Pirate join circle was on land so I ended up joining French circle- i had smuggler flag on as well. I never fired a shot(check logs)- got boarded twice by Agend47 - i tried to disengage and got capped by Agend47. Was an akward situation and wasn't sure what to do. Looking forward to explanation of this game mechanic- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liq Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 Red ship fires at Green ship --> Red to Green, not Green to Green However if it's morally correct of your nation mate to join the enemy side is another question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of Crowns Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 lol the guy that got boarded wasn't trying the help the USA captian.... he just got boarded and killed trying to get aster away from the two ai indianman. sooo this makes for a very akward case.... but... go ahead..

Aster Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 I want really sure what was going on, i messaged him in battle and said he could have one of the Indians. He rammed into me I'm pretty sure that wasn't on purpose, then proceeded to ram into the ai Indian and get boarded by it. The battle was "something" thats for sure.

TheAgend47 Posted February 3, 2018 Author Share Posted February 3, 2018 I do not want to pillory anyone, but the admin has to rethink the circle system and clarify the situation from this battle. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkydog Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Pilloried? If you didn't want to- you have failed sir. I would hope the devs rule on this soon, as having now reflected on the game mechanics involved, I feel like I have been falsely accused and my reputation besmirched. If I am in the wrong, I will take my checkered shirt at the hatch gratings and move on. As well should you. We do deserve a ruling and explanation though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ink Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 The case is closed. Green on green happens once a ship on your side (green to you) start to shooting at you or intentionally ramming thus preventing your sailing options. Joining on a side against your country mate smuggler is not forbidden by rules. To prevent join circles to be placed on land please avoid to be dragged into a battle close to land.
