Damaged ship fittings and modules will change behavior of the ship.īreathtaking open world based on 18th century historical maps gives you an opportunity to explore the 18th Century Caribbean. Hidden ship characteristics will allow to gradually uncover potential of the vessel – every ship in game will be unique.ĭamage model: Leaks, splinters, loose cannons, de-masting, raking, fires and all other hazards possible in that era. Correct tacking, box-hauling, club-hauling and other elements of the age of sail sailing are possible. Yard angles, ship angle to wind, cargo, fittings and ship condition affects speeds and turning rates. Fire ships and branders will also be present in the game.Īdvanced wind and physics model provides for realistic portrayal of ship’s performance in the age of sail. Fort and land batteries will provide support during port battles. Weapons: All major types of naval artillery are implemented: from long guns to carronades, and mortars (of course limited by the ship role and its hull). Listing and wind affects the shooting distance and will require change of tactics. One shot can hit the stern, damage the rudder, then hit the cannon carriage, injure crew, ricochet from the floor and hit the opposite side.
Every cannonball is tracked in the air and after it hits the target.
Realistic ballistics and cannon performance of the period.
