Ahoy again Pirates!
There's been talk for many years now about adding a mega ship type or ManOWar. Many Pirates have mentioned that this mega ship idea would only be plausible in Arena.
I've thought, what if this mega ship was added in adventure.
Not for sailing, but for TOWING!
Towing is an essential function of the shipping industry. Though relatively a new technology, surely Pirates have towed a vessel at some point in history.
Each server could have 2-4 stranded vessels located on the far far ends of the map. A new hitch device would have to be added to our ships to manually attach a rope tow line.
There could be destinations plots on the map in which the ships should be drifted into.
Towable boat icons could also be shown on the map to indicate they're movement.
A loot reward system of some sorts would have to be added or maybe the captains' quarters door opens for accessible loot once the towed boat reaches its destination.
This new idea could also introduce lore characters we've been missing out on.
I was thinking maybe it could be added as a world event if only one stranded mega ship was added. Player crews could then decide to alliance and help tow the mega ship or fight to sink their rival and do the towing themselves.
The towing would be a slow and tedious job, but the rewards could be BIG!
Let me know what you Pirates think?!?
Have a great day! CHEERS!
