Captain Roger Posted June 19, 2005 Posted June 19, 2005 I have Skull's Eye Schooner because is my favourite pirate ship. the design is cool (i don't like the design of Black Seas Barracuda because colours are very visible and pirate ships musn't be visible, because if they are visibles, they can't stole in other boats and soldiers can captured them easily) and Red Beard Runner has only 3 cannons. But the problem is that skull's eye schooner's cannons can't fire correctly. Can somebody tell me about Black seas barracuda's cannons can fire better that skull's eye schooner? thanks Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted June 19, 2005 Governor Posted June 19, 2005 As far as I'm aware they fire just the same... Quote
SlyOwl Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 As far as I'm aware they fire just the same... I think he means the cannon systems. As far as I'm aware, the SES system works much better than the BSB one; it's less realistic but allows a 4-gun broadside rather than just 2. The BSB system is also very cramped (and so realistic), which means the guns are difficult to fire - the cannonballs don't slide down the muzzels well. the BSB also stores its shot loose, whereas the SES stacks it, meaning it is more difficult ot access and gets thrown around in battle (realistic but annoying IMHO). ;-) Quote

X-D I like those red and white sails... let's my men know where to aim the cannons. I've never had or seen the RBR though I'll blow it out of the water just as I do the BSB when my Imperial Flagship and Carribean Clipper gang up on her. X-D Quote
Voodoo Hand Posted November 19, 2007 Posted November 19, 2007 don't talk about realism as in what was used in that time. Because if you talk about color that aint good, you automaticly go to realism in total model. Then you will end up with small, agile and fast ships which were used in those times. Those didn't even had cannons most of the time aswell. So I wonder why you complain about it... Quote

Whipstick? Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 What be the name of your ship Col. Whipstick? HMS Dipstick :-D Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted November 20, 2007 Governor Posted November 20, 2007 Isn't a dipstick the device used to measure the amount of oil in a car? Quote

X-D How many IF's and CC's have ya got Mr. Whipstick? Isn't a dipstick the device used to measure the amount of oil in a car? Right you are Mr. Phes *y* P Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted November 20, 2007 Governor Posted November 20, 2007 And they look like this... This IS a whipstick... So quite a noticeable difference there and any seafaring lad shouldn't confuse the two... Quote
Captain Green Hair Posted November 20, 2007 Posted November 20, 2007 Right again mr. Phes! But, the coronel is already named whipstick, so the ship should have a different name ey? 8-| Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted November 21, 2007 Governor Posted November 21, 2007 The coronel? X-D It depends if he named his ship after himself. Quote
Captain Brownbeard Posted November 22, 2007 Posted November 22, 2007 I dont think a colourful ship is very good cause you can get noticed easily and bright colours arent exactly a pirate style Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted November 23, 2007 Governor Posted November 23, 2007 Ahhhhhhh but what if the ship was intentionally noticeable so it could be used as decoy or a trap? Quote
Voodoo Hand Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 only demo ships are traps/decoys, so fill a ship with barrels and ramm another ship and... BOOOOOM!!!!! ^_^ Quote
Johnny 5 Posted November 24, 2007 Posted November 24, 2007 Yeah I dont think that manned ships were used as decoys often (at least with pirates) because 1 its risky and 2 not many pirates had more than one ship. :-) Quote
