Question on alliances
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to admin's topic in News Announcements & Important discussions
The voting period would overlap with the 4th week. Add tension and payback lousy allies. -

7 days voting 4 week alliance 2 allies -
Complicated answer for a simple question, one might think not or one might think yes, both are correct and incorrect. I'll try to cover that specific part on the History board as a new wall of text is coming soon into the thread.

Naval Action on Youtube
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to Thomas Blackwell's topic in Patch Feedback and General discussions
Naval Action raw footage capture feat. Ellis Although I feel disturbed about the absurd amount of BR thrown at Ellis I took the chance to record some raw footage without UI to use later on something.- 829 replies

The opening match should be today, we are only waiting for one last captain confirmation. As the opening ceremony we shall all Pray together for fair play and gallant taunts, for many fires and explosions and overall for a great time. ALL CAPTAINS of the teams: start communicating with each other and setting up days and matches so we all win time.

Suggestion: Player AI Traders
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to JakCurse's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Maybe. But would be nice to have some good convoys going and having the RN boyz and ladiez acting escort And Pedro Cay is nice this time of year. Up north is always stormy nowadays for some reason. -

Damn... time to update the CV I guess. -
Naval Wait
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to angriff's topic in Patch Feedback and General discussions
Wait for the traders/farmers waiting to fill their holds. Nah, NA is okay. Is no different from doing a escort or bomb mission in il-2. Ingress takes time, small period of high intensity of combat, depending on opposition, regress takes time. Glad it is not an arena-only game. -
Er.... not about perks tbh, I don't really see perks as adding anything specially positive at the moment. What could be added, and this could help, is for a contractor to specify the crafter level interval intended. So in sum the options would be the same as we have while crafting a ship, from quality to the rig types, gold value of contract and crafter lvl pretended. No resources involved, only hard cash.

Put NEUTRAL into the game.
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to Rabid_Infidel's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Neutrals could be reworked as a playable choice to represent the trans-national trading companies. Something the antithesis to any sort of re-worked pirates. Not tied to any nation but under the protection of all nations, meaning anyone engaging them would become outlaw, unless outlaw already of course. * see captain Kidd. -
Simple suggestion. A way to place orders for ships for public crafters to take on. Can be customized with specific trims and/or slots.

[PVP1 EU] How power makes you sick
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to [DNMF] Admiral Gerding's topic in National news
From what i've seen on the Politics everything is going according to the councils on the grand scheme of things in this first round. -
Can't tag a LGV + 2 connies due to BR. One has to bring a small cruiser squadron which adds to arms race and "gank" spirit... It is limitative On one hand the fleets help the "single player" trader but on the other hand it limits the "single player" raider. Positive side of things, yesterday bumped two traders being escorted by buddies. That's really nice to see and adds spirit to the Open World.

Suggestion: Player AI Traders
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to JakCurse's topic in Current Feature Improvement Suggestions
Yes. Been suggested multiple times and why not If ever a Trading Post building would be introduced it could mean another playstyle more focused on trade and trading companies, natural evolution of the west indies Only request would be to have the AI slightly identifiable [ with convoy ID or similar ] albeit sailing in company of each other so we would have convoys. Imagine an NPC convoy with 10 ships from 10 players and 5 of those player decide to act escort -
Stuck in Irons? Don't worry!
Hethwill, the Red Duke replied to TommyShelby's topic in Guides - development forum
Should indeed. Messed it somehow for sure -
Care to count how many trade raiders use LGVs on their own ?... At the very bottom of the issue fleets BR block tagging. It works like a invulnerability bubble and easy to get 5x difference. Now if the fleet, at the very least, is not counted towards BR would be an improvement and responsability of the attack 1v3 would befall the trade raider.
