Question for SICK about naval combat

Post by caesar01 »

Sick,

We already know it will be 6 vs 6 in combat, my question is will one be able to have adjacent "zones" with 6 ships in each zone and are these unlimited as long as it's 6 per zone?

Question 2: If a 6 ship fleet captures the enemy 6 ships how is this handled? Will the captured ships be able to be controlled automaticully During the battle, are they put out of action or ferried away to another naval zone?

Thanks sick.

Oh boy ! This means a country CAN have naval supremacy , so we can build a big fleet up ! YES !!

Thanks SiCK, I will be geting this bad boy as soon as it's out.

One could assume the 6 vs 6 is a melee of the naval engagment and for big fleet actions, just place adjacent fleets from one another and bam, a large fleet action, but 6 vs. 6 at a time, that's alright with me ! This is excellent news.

Let us know about the captured ships.

Question...The frigate and ship of the line has 2 armies each, will they be at the mercy of enemy cannon in transit or can hey compliment a ships marines for better hand to hand combat, or a little of both Sick? Thanks Sick :mrgreen:

It's been said numerous times that ships cannot engage land armies.
