Thanks you @admin the next is Portugal!

The issue so far has always been too many nations for the current playerbase, so some nations are all but dead. Has this change lately?

Looks like it. They're using the old skull on Privateer/Home Defence fleets.

Both symbols are still in use (old elite AI and this one). They must mean something different?

Maybe the "small Privateer fleets" which have been announced some time back have arrived? Besides elite.

(loot found on them will tell)

So let's say i want to attack the Swe with the french Hostile mission.

- (1) find a french clan how will ally with the main Russian clan

-(2) do the hostilly and PB with the french mission

=> exploits

=> Countered possible: do not put it on the War Server?

Impossible and pirates should be exempted from the alliance on war survey.  They are impossible and hard nations after all.  It will also help keep majority power to traditional nations

So sad, all those alts shenanigans will have cost us a lot of interesting features over the years...

So the devs have admitted this is no longer a historical game by adding China? Guess we can call it a fantasy game now.

I don't think it was ever billed as a "historical game".

It is advertised as "Naval Action is a hardcore, realistic, and beautifully detailed naval combat sandbox..." with historic ships and realistic sailing and gunnery.

Not really there have been a boost in playerbase but not one major enough to justify adding a new nation i think :) when we already have poland with no ports denmark getting reduced to a few ports and their capital and spain that have been gifted ports from sweden to keep them alive and the netherlands arent looking to good either

we should not forget that the game is very special and only enthuses a small number of people. so, i don't think that the player base will raise that much when you introduce a new faction.

what for sure is bad, because the game is a pearl with a lot of potential (in terms of trading, ship building, stock exchange and RvR when we would have a clan wide diplomatic system)

all those new nations starting out from free ports would have it that hard to exist when they don't have the needed player base.

from my point of view it would be better to create all nation flags where player can select from (as ensign) and  sail then for the original main nations (flag on top mast). that would maybe bring more players to the game and they would also have a better start from scratch ( for example port bonus ....)

From what I have heard none of the real chinese players in factions like Prussia or Great Britain are willing to switch to China. So probably this introduction of another new faction didn't go well.

Who cares if China become new zerg nation or stay small like Poland. They added a nation, that's it.

Except you

Not really. I just made the conclusion (for myself) that the introduction of a new nation obviously didn't pay off.
