    SEA LEGENDS : Game-Labs , Q3 2024 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1368050/Sea_Legends/ I hope they are serious. Definitely Wish-listed . A Single Player sailing simulation of square rigs has never been seriously done before. I hope they a can pull elements from writers’s such as...

    New Player - Thank you so much for this!

    Re: #3. I bought CoAS on release the mod to GOF they ran pretty good . So I recently, I got the Maelstrom engine and the Historical ERAS2 mod. Really like this mod’s historic emphasis. I got Noticeable Improvements in graphics, sounds, music stability etc. (I’m using Win7/64 bit build). So...

    GoF 1.2 + Patch - I can't purchase anything from the Store.

    I had same problem with ERAS2. The store will not sell to you because when the game started your boat was already too overloaded. The store will not sell more. The solution is to sell goods to the store to reduce weight, then buy again up to you weight limit.

    Gameplay

    I enjoy testing in-game, so I tested the amount of hull damage caused by Elite vs Average rating crews. To test this I used the editor. I put two identical Britannia model ships side to side. One of these with an Elite the other Average crew rating. I removed the mast from each model so all...

    Gameplay

    My first attempt with the Campaign Editor I tried unsuccessfully to fix a bug in the default campaign. However, I found the “Mission Editor” useful for creating practice and test missions I’ve heard that before. My experience is unfouling and boarding may be unsuccessful and take a lot...

    Gameplay

    Glad you found it! The campaign editor does have its quirks and is not easy or intuitive to use . Campaigns can be created by linking scenarios created with the mission editor. I had started a campaign based on Thomas.Cochrane but never actually completed. However, AOSII: PB also comes...

    Treasure Island (R.L. Stevenson)

    Treasure Island (R.L. Stevenson)

    Treasure Island remains a favorite of mine. I pick the novel up occasionally to admire the writing of a carefully woven story. A Pirate story with characters done right! These characters are true Icons, that inspired many others. Romanticized Pirate lore owes much to this story. The Ben Gunn...
