    Guide The tips thread

    The manual mentions nothing about sail colors or Quest ships so below are the colors of sails you need to look for on the world map to find the Quest ships: (taken from a post by Scrogdog) Orange = Quest ship you must fight Green = Quest ship that you must talk to (no fight) Purple =...

    run coas from hard drive?

    I am not sure but my computer sometimes gives me the error to insert the correct DVD into the drive, even when it is already in there. CoAS is the only game I have that does that. My simple fix is to just re-click the shortcut icon on the desktop. It would be nice not to have to worry about...

    Sailing question

    I find my self using direct sail a lot more in this game than in PoTC build 13. I like all the capes and beaches that are scattered around the Caribbean. If you are fighting a sea battle close to land, try using direct sail before exiting to the world map. Chances are that many times you will...

    Problem with encounter on the worldmap

    The only advice I can offer on top of this is to save often and if you find yourself in a difficult encounter to reload your game. This will help in the beginning when you have to be picky about the battles that you fight. Once your skills and ship are a little better you will not have to...

    Recruit captured crew

    Arrr, does anyone know the answer to the above question? I have a 60+ hour game going as a Dutch Adventurer, my goal in the game being to capture all the settlements on the map for myself. I am finally maxing out my stats, but I am hesitant to proceed because I want to make sure that my goal...

    Quest help - find the pirate ship

    I read in another thread that say for example you had a LoM from the Dutch, and you did a mission from another nations governor, you wouldn't be able to do any more missions from the Dutch, and that it might break/bug your game. I hope that one day CoAS will be modded similarly to PoTC. I had...

    Cheat God Mode

    Welcome to the forums yellow-dog!!! Aye, CoAS can be difficult when you are just beginning. If you figured out how to enable god mode you may be able to easily install some mods that can help with the difficulty and add to the gameplay. These guys are all giving you a tough time about using...

    Quest help - find the pirate ship

    Does the game let you have more than one LOM and titles at a time? Can I get another patent/letter of marque by doing missions from another nations governor? I didnt know this was possible. Fred Bob, I think yur game be bugged.

    Anyone thought about cats

    I like the idea of having multiple cats to kill the rats. For me any rats at all would be annoying, but if the rat attack frequency is lowered it is something I could live with. OFF TOPIC: Its good to see that you guys have played Imperial Glory. I have added some modds and now I think it is...

    Quest help - find the pirate ship

    Wow, I did not know to look for the pirate ship through direct sail. I tried this mission 3 times by attacking all the pirate ships on the world map but I always ran out of time. Another thing to note is that the governors missions do not need to be played in any special order. I was able to...

    Recruit captured crew

    What is the ground assault perk? Is it an ability like allied troop landing, or is it hidden? I am playing as an adventurer. Will the perk become active if I complete the gov-generals missions and can capture settlements?

    increase loyalty

    Bah, that doesnt suit my playing style. Even if I have a fleet, I take the surrendered ships cargo, and captain, and then sink the vessel. If a ship shoots at me its fate is sealed. I miss the surrender mode of PoTC, where ships would hoist the white flag, and then be inactive the rest of the...

    Recruit captured crew

    Lol, I always was looking to hire them from the hold of my ship. I never saw any there so I thought it was bugged. I was looking through the manual today and it also says that you can use the speak out loud feature to capture jungle settlements or towns without forts if you dock on a beach...

    increase loyalty

    From what I have seen in the game this is correct. Every action I take in the game, either evil or good, affects the loyalty of my officers. I had to fire all my good reputation officers today because I was losing too much loyalty from them when I took a surrendered ship, captured the captain...

    Quest problem?

    I just completed this quest yesterday. Lol, I did it the harder way without buying the trading lisence. I landed at the beach and approached the port during the day to avoid patrols. In the jungle section, before the entrance to the city section, I waited at x3 speed until 00:00. Save...

    increase loyalty

    You could mod the game to increase all officers starting loyalty. This is what I did because checking how my actions affect my officers every time I do something is too much micromanagement for a pirate game if you ask me. If you want to mod officers starting loyalty in the game highlight what...

    Space to Talk

    Thank you for this mod. I have been using it for a long time now and it works great.

    QuestLookout Mod

    I have been using this mod for a while and have not had the lookout notify me of any quest ships that are moored in port. Maybe I haven't come across any yet? I will keep trying though and hopefully find a quest ship soon. I will post back my results.

    [REL] No Crew Limit Capture mod

    This mod is a must have for starting characters. Often times I am fighting battles where I am out outnumbered, outgunned, and outclassed. I lose crew for every boarding that happens. If I transfer the minimum crew needed for every ship that I capture I will soon be out of crew that I need to...

    potc to coas

    I miss these from potc builds. I am especially missing the tailor mod for myself, my officers, and my crew. I hope one day CoAS will receive the same tender love and care that PoTC has received from the build modders.
