[CapitainDams]

Great!

 

[Mr. Cotton]

Thats very good, although it would be better if you could walk on the ship.

 

[CapitainDams]

And use canons.

 

[Mr. Cotton]

And board ships. But if we want that we should play Potc. Or get real pirates. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

Real pirates would be fun... <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_wink.gif" />

I like how you can zoom in on the battle plan...

Wish the photographer had gone up into the rigging to shoot one of those 360 degree setups.

Heh, well if it had been me, I'da done that! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

Imagine, tho, if the 360º shot included a whole forest of "tall ship" masts! Wouldn't that be grand? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

I dint know ships had that many guns. its like 1000000000000000000000000000000000

 

[Corrington]

i was on HMS Victory and i can say that this panorama is nothing to that in Portsmouth...although CapitainDams you couldn't used cannos because are fake, only few are real and thats because would ship collapse dock if they were all real...

but i would like feel to order to fire a broadside for about appr. 50 cannons, hear and see the effects od 12, 24 and 32-pounders in target vessel...
