    Ah, looks like you beat me to the punch Zareth! Good work! I can't wait to sail her! Ahoy mates after a <i>long</i> "voyage at sea". School is great and has finally begun to wind down as I prepare to graduate this May. Hopefully I'll be going to the Virginia Military Institute on a Navy ROTC...

    1801 British forces led by Vice Admiral Horatio Nelson defeat the Dano-Norwegian fleet at the Battle of Copenhagen.

    Additional nations in game

    We could even add another pirate nation, to simulate Asian pirates perhaps? Or Barbary pirates... that could be interesting...

    I hope that one day, we'll learn enough code and break open the engine... to make a multilpayer. I could be primative at first: simply an ocean with player's ships on it, but I'd hope we could eventually add stuff like the ability to choose weather, location, land mass, etc. But I'd bet that if...

    Thankee mates! Its been a fine day! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" /> (Nice one Stallion!) I registered to vote! And I got my draft card... <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif"...

    argument Topic

    Actually, I had hoped that there was no need to continue this topic... I'd hate to see a gap form between fellow modders here. I am merely trying to see that my country's history is put into the game correctly alongside other nations and their correct history. I'm not personally offended... a...

    I noticed elsewhere that I was in the Devlin quest? I think that until the American town is updated and an American quest is added that you can leave me out to save space... unless you already had me planned to do something in the Devlin quest? And yes... Alan Smithee... heh heh heh... <img...

    Leaving for sea: The final week starts

    Well do enjoy your tour of duty Pieter! Looking forward to hearing about all your adventures at sea! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/w00t.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":woot" border="0" alt="w00t.gif" />

    Build 14 Alpha 8

    Ahhh, ok! Thanks Pieter! Its so much clearer now... I thought everyone was at church or something, since people back then were more strict about religion... (hey, idea for a mod anyone? If you're in port on a Sunday... don't expect to see many people... the church will be full.)...

    Build 14 Alpha 8

    Indeed... to distinguish civilian, merchant, or navy ships with flag sets for different periods would be interesting!

    Build 14 Alpha 8

    Indeed... I prefer non-linear gameplay too. But I would still suggest making multiple quests so everyone's happy in addition to bringing back the customizable character option.

    Build 14 Alpha 8

    Well, here's an idea for the next big project once B14A8 is finished... we give each nation a specific quest. Each time period's theme matches a nation, so I'd try to make each period's quest match the national theme. The exception would be The Corsican, as that time period is known as the RN's...

    Build 14 Alpha 8

    Ahoy Pieter! I have a question and an observation: Does this latest Alpha have the option of playing as your own character in a plot-free game or is one locked into one of the quests? (Stupid question, I know, but just checking.) Also... I noticed that the Master and Commander quest is the one...

    Indeed! We need to get Maximus in here!

    Surprise tune-up.

    Is this supposed to be a model of the actual <i>Surprise</i> or Jack Aubrey's <i>Surprise</i>? Because I think it would be nice to have a version of this particular ship with quarter galleries. Are there versions of this ship in French, American, and Spanish colors? Because it is a perfect...
