Here you go. There's a map legend on the right, all new ports are marked with green, all free towns are have Free Town written next to them.

It's just a game. It's all meaningless. Just pixels. There could be another wipe. Far be it from me to want to discourage anyone from playing this game, but you already payed for it, and you seem to be more interested in pixels shifting colours than testing the mechanics, so maybe you shouldn't play until release?

ONLY the colours matter. The letters only indicate the historical situation that they base the map on. Don't pay them any attention if you're not interested in the background for the map. *The white circles indicate freeports, so Cayman Brac will remain a freeport. *Tumbado has a white circle, so it will remain a freeport. *Ile-a-Vache has disappeared on purpose. Instead we get La Navasse, and all assets will be moved there from Ile-a-Vache.

If you go to imgur and right click on the image and choose open image in new tab, you should get an image version that is plenty big enough.

Nice!

Is "a consolidated presence" dependent on port ownership? In the case of Danmark-Norge we technically only need to capture the Virgin Isles and ally with France and Spain and we can be back to our how we are now, with access to all the same ports and the same front lines.

Since allies can practically use each other's territories as their own, strategically Spain's allies should just settle in her territories and use them and defend them as if they were their own. Instead of port swaps, the allies of Spain can expand beyond her borders. It would be the unexpected, yet the most strategical and interesting thing to do. Rather than have a lot of empty region swaps in the beginning.

I have a few questions already: Why is Providencia marked as Spanish, and not Pirate? Also, the colour used to mark "Pirate Regions" are the same as the ones used to mark the noob-zone. Does this by any chance indicate that Pirates will operate differently when it comes to conquest? (Like capturing individual ports instead of entire regions) Or does it just mean that the regions Abaco, Andros and Grand Bahamas will be Pirate owned regions at the start, with the exception of the national noob capitals in each region?

Nice! I look forward to deployment.

I got kicked again when I logged on again 5 minutes later, but after I waited another 15 minutes I could log in without trouble. Now the server has worked fine for a while. EDIT: I spoke too soon...

I tried to leave port and spawned underwater, with no ship and at the coordinates 0,0 I'm not sure, but from the server selection menu it looked like only PvP One was affected, so guessing a server issue.

Oh, wait. You wanted me to remember that number off the top of my head? I don't. I'd say they had somewhere between 5 and 10 ports left by that time.

You think that after Black Friday we immediately became friends? It was different times and a different mentality, but the only reason RvR stopped was A. because we gave almost all their ports back, and B. because they both found it much more rewarding and effective to start ganking massively around Christiansted. In the case of France, their beef with Danes were secondary to their beef with the Dutch. And if we got any relief from the results of our campaign, I suspect that was only because both nations were resigned with the lack of help from the British.

M8 you have no idea... The only way to pacify an enemy in this game is to make friendly gestures and work on what makes him an enemy to begin with.

I have updated the data sheet, maps and statistics according to the new information:

Is Beata going to be dropped as a new port entirely?

Every port on the map has a letter that indicates "historical ownership" during 17-1800s. That's just a guide. Freeport status or dominance in a region by another faction will override this.

From how I read it your outpost will move from Key West to Las Tortugas.
