Alas, your mighty explorers returned home with empty hands!

You need to send ships with more crew and cargo to even get a chance to find a shipwreck.

So, those with little ships can not find shipwrecks?... Tried 3 times, failed 3 times.



You need to follow the advice if you want success. The message is pretty clear I hope.

So basically, its telling me to go build ships.

No thanks.

P.S BMW: A level one sloop is not really anything special..

For once, I can vouch for BMW.

The sloop he got is a 4 digit sloop. :o:

honestly I don't care if a ship is old. its a neat thing to own, but I certainly would not pay extra for a ship just because its old.

Looks like those, who have a grand amount of fleets - Will be able to utilize this feature well. ( More then 10, to be honest ) It does not add strategy, merely a survival mechanism.

+1 to the feature in general. Just that, would of thought a Cutter due to its speed and it being a single ship would of been able to found at least one ship even if it being on the coral reef...

A pirates question... How would Hostile Natives work on such fleets?...

Do we have to wait for the 12 hour gap?..

Is this going to be like fishing where pirates only chance is FoJ as well? :))

I am interested for any warship with an id of a known player. If you get your hands into any of such gems, send me a PM to negotiate ;)

makes sense that the ship needs to have a large cargo and crew. doesn't make sense if a cutter could find a man of war and bring it back.

You can keep track of the number of shipwrecks you have found at Captains Log.

Once ship history comes, such events will be added to the ship's journal. In light of this feature, we might work fast on this feature.
