Career rewards...

Well, that's what i need to know... which are the rewards from serving one or another nation? I mean ships or nice items ^^. This information should be told in the walkthrough that its being prepared <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/buds.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":drunk" border="0" alt="buds.gif" /> .


French: Corvette Roi Soleil.
I think the English provide a huge lineship but im not sure (haven't played it hehe).
Dutch ?
Spanish ?
Pirates ?
 
I am also looking forward to finding out, as I haven't even starting any of the national quests yet...I still can't get a letter of marque, damn governors keep sending me on small-time missions <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

I'm wondering also, if there are any specific rewards/quests related to your profession that you pick at the beginning? Like a merchant quest line that ends with a good trading ship or something. Or does your profession only affect what you start with at the beginning?
 
I believe you can get titles and land from which it would appear you can receive a pension. But again, I haven't played that far into the game to confirm or deny such allegations.

I think the french reward, the "Roi Soleil" is not a Corvette.... it seems to be a Manowar.
Taking a look on the Ships_init.c

So that would be the unique manowar, then? What about the other nations? Any interesting stuff from them?
 
In my game, they asked for the Soleil Royal back at the end of the quest line, but I kept it at the port office.
They thought I gave it back. Not sure if its a bug or intended.
Anyway, can't remove the captain of the ship and can't swap ships, so can't upgrade it at Bermuda.

You get the title Sir for British and Baron for French; Captain for English, Commodore for French I think.
I used debug mode to start French quest line after British one so I have both titles lol. Sir Baron Peter Blood.

Edit: Soleil Royal is the unique manowar, 112 42lbs cannons.
Not sure if you get anything else from other nation questlines. I got Morgan's Rapier from Morgan, I think it was related to English questline.

Yeah, I have 2 of them now. My chara doesn't even use light weapons =X
 
i've finished the english national quest line and its just gave me the title sir and some of the former governor general's money some 300k i think.but by that time i have around 30 mil already so it doesn't really help.though the french national quest's reward looks enticing <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />.how about the pirate line quest what does it give?
 
Hmm...well, looking at the Ships_init.c file it seems there is a special corvette of some kind...its labeled as "Corvette Quest". I'm more interested in the SOL though <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> So the French questline is confirmed to give the Soleyru?

SoleyRu
A royal line ship, first class: horrifying firepower, mixed with a refined hull and inspiring sailing properties. A grand ship for the ages.
 
So, if you´re wrong we must correct you.... What should we do if you´re right???? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/doff.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":doff" border="0" alt="doff.gif" />

The WarDog is granted (after the payment of 1.5 MILLION piasters) after the CoAS quest-line.
It´s the fastest ship on game, after some tweaks on Bermuda my WarDog has 26 speed, 80 maneuravility, 5 against wind, 357 crew (with overcrew can carry 446 men), 3300 cargo-hold, 40 cannons up to 32 caliber... a dream come true for a pirate.

That does not sound good... so the frogs give you a ship you cant really use for yourself and the brits give you cash only?
<strike>English quest line</strike>
<strike>French quest line</strike>
Spanish and Dutch are my worst enemies I dont think I can do their quests either... not happy <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
@ Tahlendorf: The Bluebird is almost as fast, mine has maximum of 24.something upgraded, but with high navigator skill it actually sails faster than its maximum (over 25). And it's brilliant against the wind, too, point of sail almost 11, <i>and</i> due to the fact that the sails are parallel with the hull they don't get shredded as you're closing in on an enemy. But only 250 crew, 300 with overload. Which is enough to take on single frigates or heavy galleons, but anything bigger and/or more numerous I run away from.
1.5 mil for the Dog, huh? Should be fine, I went to the COAS with over 6 mil. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

@ LittleMorgan: Can't you just keep the ship and not give it back?

Apparently you can keep it; but only use it as a companions ship... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />
 
I have succesfully finished the Dutch missions and now most of the caribbean is Dutch!
There are no special rewards like estates or the Governors daughter, just money.
 
Laaaaaame. Well I guess I'll do the English line, then, if it really doesn't matter.
 
Low on cargo and 100 Navigation skill show 28.4 of 26 on speed <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blah:" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> faster than the wind, TRULLY... wind of 17 knots and sailing at 18knots (or something similar, don´t remember the exact figures). BlueBird is the best sailing against the wind, you can outrun any other ship against the wind.. best for escaping... but running is not my preferred choice <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/guns.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":2guns" border="0" alt="guns.gif" /> and only 20 cannons, WarDog is double with 40 <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/guns.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":2guns" border="0" alt="guns.gif" />
