Discussion Any chance for "battle simulator"?

[Lonious]

One of the things i like about this mod are the ships.

Is there any way i can customise a battle in sea? Like come up with a group of ships from a particular nation to duke it out with another in advance.

For example, pitting the pearl against some warships.

Be in the Black Pearl, wander around the worldmap, look for another group of ships, and engage it. You should get a message telling you the group's nation and type. If it's a nation you want to attack and the type is something like "warships", "small patrol", "battle fleet" - basically, anything which doesn't include "merchants" - then continue on to the battle. There's no way to guarantee exactly what you'll be facing, but you'll definitely get some warships. Especially if it's anything which includes the word "fleet".

Setting up a specific encounter with a choice of ships is going to involve some programming...
