Convert the Neutral faction to Trading companies faction

[Coriolanus]

Hi,

 

i have a suggestion for you,

 

i would suggest to convert the neutral faction (useless) to another nation called "trading companies" or something like that so that all that people that don't have a nation to join is not forced to serve as a pirate.

The nation would be unique, the player of this nation won't be able to attack other players except for pirates of course or if the player doesn't buy a "corsair letter" from other nation or the trading companies that require one against another particular nation.

This of course will make trading more exciting

 and will give a sense to those trading ships like Amsterdam and la grosse ventre and others u will chose to add to the game in the future.

 

I hope you will consider my suggestion.

 

sincerely

There is no neutral faction.

 

Also, there were no "neutral" traders in the day.  You sailed under a nation's flag, and if that nation went to war, you stayed in port or took your lumps.  

 

We had neutrals once, but they were abused to bypass port blockades and whatnot, it didn't work very well.

So traders will trade so that crafters can craft so that fighters can...

 

Ooooh...

 

I think I found a problem right there.
