    Smugglin-why do patrols always show up?

    once out of about 10 smuggles i expected a patrol after selling about 3000 slaves and none came. anyway if ure having trouble early game the best i think is to capture small ships and sell them/their cargo. get a ship that holds at least 80-100 crew, overload it as much as possible with more...

    ship upgrades?

    you can only do each upgrade once.. so that ship will be able to fit max of 24lbs. BTW i prefer regular cannon to culverins. they do more damage and reload faster, weigh less, only tradeoff is they have a shorter range. At max ranges, your not going to do much damage anyway, so really its a...

    you have to swim behind the shipyard talk to your guys and then swim behind the Frigate parked in the bay and fight everyone there.

    AA and AF

    it seems to work, but in sea battles, you cant see the health bars over enemy ships anymore, which i actually prefer, it makes you have to use your judgement or if you have it, a good spyglass.

    Mod Ideas

    i still would like a mod that changes how wind affects the sails in this game. as it is, when you are "running" that is, full wind directly astern, your sails are actually "Close Hauled" which is actually where they would be when running almost directly into the wind. pitcure

    Guide The tips thread

    heres one you dont need to actually sail to a port to enter it from the worldmap if you exit to sea near the shore somewhat close to it. Just go to sea and choose "Sail to" and choose the port/beach. Extremely useful when sailing from the south to Port a Prince, instead of sailing alllllll...

    Very first thoughts after 30min

    id like to know if the sails are handled realisticly? While AOP is a great game the sail animation kills it for me, a big part of the beauty of these ships is how they look filled with wind. I really havent played a lot of these pirate games other than AOP(2) and Sid Miers Pirates, the latter...

    mod idea... maybe

    Im no coder or anything but i was just wondering if there was any way to make sails react more realisticly to wind in this game? They just dont seem to react realisticly to wind. link likely wishful thinking but it kinda kills immersion i mean the sails always seem to be a few points off...

    Minimum crew on captured ship
