against ur opinion i think it was a good move to disengage and repair crew after boarding

That's not what I mean.... of course it was a "good" move... he couldn't play the boarding and then had to pull off this lame disengage and crew repair with rum... I'am saying the mechanic is bullshit and makes battles last longer than they have or even let the worse player get away like here... moscalb should have gotten the kill, he clearly played better and it was Essex vs Agamemnon...

As i said, he would have gotten the kill if had shot the hull instead of still trying to demast and board him.

Maybe but it doesn't change the problem... also it was Agamemnon vs Essex. Why should he have to deal with his superior armor and broadside weight, when the dude doesn't even understand the boarding game? Watch the whole thing... the Agamemnon dude even had boarding mods but only spammed defend and lost much more crew EVERY single round, except for the stupid rum spam... 

You're suggesting boarding doesn't matter and a shitty player should be able to counter boarding in a big ship by constantly spamming rum instead of actually winning in the boarding? Because that is what it sounds like...

Only becouse old tactics dosn't work as before, it dosn't mean that repairs a a fail. Don't know if u can defend and disengage at the same time, but if u can - dosn't seems so wrong what he did, and if u looked at the boardings he dosnt had enough preperation ...

I think it should be limited to 2 repairs in battle. Ex: 1 hull and 1 sail, or 2 sail, etc.

It adds more strategy this way and keeps battles from lasting 1.5 hours when they were over in the first 5 minutes.

If they were over in the first 5 minutes they wouldn't last 1.5 hours and both parties wouldn't leave the battle.

Yep too many people are all about the board. Boarding should be uncommon imo. There are many many many players who have no clue how to do anything else though.

Malachy, if you are fine with chasing players in battle for hours while they spam rig repairs then I have nothing to say to you.
