I think this is the wrong board, mate.

If that's legit, 82 guns... blimey. I was not expecting her to have that many. She's going to pack a punch.

Do we know which Rotterdam we're getting? Threedecks.org lists like 21 ships with that name, including quite a few which sound like they'd be about the size I'd expect a "combat Indiaman" to be.

I wasn't expecting our Temeraire to be flush-decked, myself. But hey, whatever works. It's a cool-looking model.

Ah, just like the 'Pray' feature, then. Will we get chat bans for speculating about what it does?

Everything's perfect, right?

A massive advertisement of NA might help, but that won't be enough, if people buy the game and then quickly stop playing it. We need to figure out what needs to be done to keep people playing.

So much for not having to sail far from a friendly port to find something to fight. As someone who hates spending much time fruitlessly sailing around the open world, waiting for my ship to get from A to B or for an enemy ship to appear, it looks like missions, and maybe the areas around free towns, could be the only reliable options left, unless I get lucky and find a spot were lots of AI frigates tend to hang out... In other words, this sounds like one more reason for me to not play this game, because now I'll be even less likely to find something to fight than before.

Oh wow, that's amazing. I'm so looking forward to seeing that ship ingame.

Being able to attack merchant convoys (trader + escort traders, and perhaps a frigate or two to guard them) would be cool, for sure.

If you're saying the devs should take ships already available for free ingame and then sell them as DLC for real money... no.

Yeah, she'll be interesting to see. The Danish Christian VII, too.

The Shipyard is the place for discussing individual ships in detail: Come on down, it could use some discussion to liven the place up a bit.

Just logged in to claim the Diana (first time I've logged in in a couple of months, I'm guessing) and man, the new open world UI and map look beautiful. Good job, devs.

My, she's a beauty.
