    Need help finding a 17th century map of Nassau, Bahamas

    I've found this drawing of the New Providence Island. It says it was published in the 1700s. http://www.loc.gov/item/74692182/ And a close-up on Nassau. This image I found on the Ubisoft forum, but I couldn't find the original image from which this one was cropped...

    Need help finding a 17th century map of Nassau, Bahamas

    Thanks a lot for pointing me in the right direction. The town maps in the HoO wiki are exactly the kind I'm looking for. One question, if I come across some useful piece of information (maps, drawings etc), can I add it to the wiki somehow? Or should I post them in this topic/forum?

    Need help finding a 17th century map of Nassau, Bahamas

    Hello everyone, I'm looking for any maps or visual representations of how the fort and the town are positioned on the island during the 17th century. I've googled for an hour and I couldn't even figure out where the old British fort was positioned at that time. Some drawings I've seen put the...

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    Thanks! I'm happy to hear that it's more than just chance. Do you have any idea how big of a crew do I need to have to conquer a town? And do crews from other ships in my fleet add to the total number?

    WIP City of Abandoned Ships: Historical Immersion-Gentlemen of Fortune Supermod

    Hi Modder01, Can I ask what improvements does your mod have over GoF 2.0?

    Oh, my mistake. I should have checked before posting. Are your prepared for your daily dose of questions to stimulate your memory? :D Is it possible to tone down somehow the amount of debris that flies from a ship when it's hit? It confuses me because I don't always know if the splash is made...

    Well since I'm using this topic like it's yahoo answers, here goes another one. If I have two ships and the second one I staff with officers armed with the best weapons, will it count when doing a boarding action in which I'm not present? I'm dreaming about having a creating a pirate wolfpack to...

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    I guess it's all about how you like to RP in your game. I like playing as the merchant turned pirate/privateer. It allows me to level my character in a way that it doesn't break immersion, I don't like the idea of being a pirate with a very weak character or capturing vessels by myself without...

    I could give it a try and tweak the parameters and see what happens. I'll let you know if I stumble upon something awesome! :)) But... How do I open those files? :D

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    What I meant to say is that I never see pirates and their victims, only pirates crushed by the "insert country" warship patrols. What does "Cannot Buy - Navy Ship" mean? Do I have to be enlisted in the Royal Navy to get those ships? Or only have a letter of marque? Ah and another question, can...

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    Thanks for the suggestions and advice! To be honest I posted when the frustration was pretty high for not getting my money's worth from the ship. I'd spent 1 hour traveling between ports for a good ship to buy and then another hour trying to find a suitable target (read "weak ship which I could...

    How do you plunder in this mod? I have a Light Fluyt of war (34-12lbs cannons and 4000 hull strength) and I couldn't find a single ship on the world map that was weak enough for me to attack. Everyone sails in convoys and even merchants with light escort have 2-3 ships my size... I've never seen...

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    I've started a new Sea Hawk game and I'd like to ask for some advice on how to make money faster than my current approach with is doing chores for store owners. I've tried buying and selling cargo on my own but my ship is too small and my commerce skill to low (well is 5 or 6 now) to get more...

    Mod Release Gentlemen Of Fortune 2.0

    The fix for me is very simple, after I'm done looting the captains cabin, I simply press LMB and it takes me to the captured ship menu.

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    Thanks, I didn't know there is a newer version. I've installed it and I'll start a new game tomorrow. "Brave Black Flag" might be exactly what I'm looking for.

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    Thanks for the reply! I'm not talking about officers you can add to your party, but those crewmen you get when you talk to a sailor on the ship deck and ask for 1-3 sailors to join you next time you dock. Are those ones supposed to protect you when you get in a fight. They don't have any...

    Starting game date, does it matter?

    So I'm trying the New Horizons mod for the first time and I have to say that I've never seen a mod so well put together and polished. I take my hat off to all the people who made it possible! Now with the introduction out of the way I have a few questions. Does it matter which story line I...
