Naval Action French attacking a British port - PvP battle...

[@Tac-Historicalwarfare]

GG was a fun fight, one of the closest PBs I’ve had in all the years I’ve played. 90% of the PBS are pretty boring so it was good to be part of one going down to the last seconds.o7

Ya.. have I not been sunk, when I was. We might have won this one.. Anyway, saw a few of my mistakes in my own video and need to practice on those. Get an upwind position on my opponent and go for his water line every chance I get.. :-)

@@JankoG- 31 leaks is bad but potentially survivable. Your problem was that you didn't notice until it was already too late. Depowering was correct thing to do, but reversing/neutralising your sails and turning into the wind would slow you down much more quickly than merely dropping the sails. Turning off gunnery and sailing also gets crew on emergency repair as fast as possible.

@@hullabaloo9824 Agree! In the heat of the battle and emotions taking over me at that point, completely forgot about reversing my sails... :-(

I loved the shallow water portbattles under your command, Beetrot. But I loved fighting you yesterday too. GG.

[@JankoG-]

Oh.. what game name you go under? None of the enemy list names have the GG as their first initial. Looking forward to seeing you, in the next battle. BTW, thanks for watching my video... :-)

@@JankoG- GG as in "good game"???

[@rainerbrombach5502]

@@Xela2501 Someone Else and your PB commander was Friendly Foe not Beetroot. My bad. And yes GG stands for good game. By the way we all watch your video 😉

[@JankoG-]

@@Xela2501 Lol.. sorry, took it as your name initials. My bad...:-(

@@rainerbrombach5502 Happy to hear that not only you, but your teammates as well, got to see my video. Forgot the name of your teammate that send my "ass" to Davy Jonse's Locker.. :-) Anyhow, learned a thing or two from him.

cinematic shots are cool and all, but its way more interesting when we can actually see what is happening in the battle so maybe only go cinematic once in a while and show the points and health etc more often. Thanks for recording though wish more videos of Port battles got posted.

[@JankoG-]

I agree with you 100% man. I was being lazy with the cam, right clicking my mouse button so as to hop around from ship to ship. From now on I will use the Free Cam more often hovering around the action, with the Hud on. (I think that's what you suggesting.) Thanks for watching my video and your good advice.. :-)

Very close battle!

[@thehunterdave1864]

From Points yes but ,the GB hast many more Power on His side

[@JankoG-]

Yes, we've had nearly double the ship count. Generally, our skill level is still low, therefore making deadly mistakes. Myself was in full sales, when I took over 30 hits below the waterline, that sunk me. Good learning battle for us though. :-)

[@rainerbrombach5502]

@@thehunterdave1864 That's fine. It turned out that french lack of players and british lack of experience balanced the battle perfectly.

Oh oO

[@czarny4747]

Is this Caraibian server ?

[@JankoG-]

Yes! Full name is; "Caribbean Main".

[@czarny4747]

​@@JankoG- why people don't come back to the War server? After all, this server is for new players and admins wipe it every six months ?

[@JankoG-]

@@czarny4747 The old / original game involving the two servers PvP and PvE are no longer available for sale. The new NA Caribbean Main is for free to play. In other words, the two old servers are permanently closed to new gamers / players. I for example, purchased the orig game, therefore I can still play in all three servers.
