Swimming gear

    Next weeks event or bi-weekly event should introduce swimming gear

    -Flippers: Imagine soaring through the water at bursts of speed but the downfall of these would be slower land movement

    -Rebreather: swimming under the ocean so you can stay under right well what if you could purchase an item that allows for double the breath and once it’s out returning to the surface replenishes your air and the rebreathers usage.

    -Webbed gloves: again to go with the flippers for an added burst of speed plus increase water speed all around

    -Speargun: why not have an underwater weapon to go with the swimming gear right?

    I'd like some gear for diving. A harpoon. A diving bell. Holding a cannonball to make you sink faster like having a weight belt on. I think those items might fit into the game theme.

    @wevuss I was actually expecting / hoping for something like this. Too bad.

    Maybe a bottle full of air?

    Diving bells aren't a new idea (at least not in the real world), But it would have it's limitations.

    For one it would only fit on galleons, meaning the galleon would need a redesign since the bell would need to sit under the cage/hatch that covers the table map.

    Second rebeathers are maybe a quarter of a century old with the ones at the very beginning being rather dangerous. So those wouldn't really fit with the golden age of pirates theme in the game.

    Flippers, maybe. It's not really new tech.

    Introduce fleets take the brig out of the sloop put in diving bell with crane etc. galleon can team up with sloop vice versa boom

    There's still the problem that the ships would need a redesign, and that most older diving bells weren't small.

    @arkane-wisdom true but this game has you fighting skeletons krakens megladons launching to skeleton thrones killing mermaid statues so I think a little fiction wouldn’t hurt

    I think they should add the wooden pig treadmill powered sub. Equipped with dolphin sonar and shark torpedoes!
