Treasure Fleets

[Captain Ward]

Given the introduction of the new indiaman I thought it might be a good idea to get some randomly routed and rare AI treasure fleets. About 5 Indiamen escorted by SoLs? It would give something for the new pirate not-a-nation to do. Any suggestions on mechanics would be more than welcome, but its just an idea that would improve PVE imo.

Its a good idea but not the first person to suggest it. 

 

Am sure its on the list of things to do for the Dev team.

The developer already spoke about adding something of a similar matter (treasure fleets) quite some tie ago in a Q&A on some pirate players stream, so im quite sure its in the to do list already, not sure about where its priority wise. But seeing as the economy is in shambles with the inflation caused by insane high level mission rewards and the unexplained change to AI having static set prices for goods, a treasure fleet to even be considered a treasure fleet should carry something like 100 million on board

...What new indiaman?

...What new indiaman?

There have been a few ships added for testing by the small patch that came this week it seems, currently they are not available for the public, but most likely they will be here soon, one is an armed trader vessel with a name Indiaman and a small 18 gun brig or small frigate Rattlesnake

Been waiting on the Rattlesnake forever. Woo!

Can't wait to see if this gets implemented.
