Ship Takeovers

  • The idea is pretty basic on paper. A group pirates sneak onto an enemy ship, take out all hostiles and have control of the boat. The only problem is that they don't truly have control. I am proposing an idea that allows crews to take over another crew's ship. This would be in the form of a flag(most likely done at the flagbox in the crows nest). This can only be done if the crew size fits the ship; for example, a galleon crew can't take over a sloop or brig. Once control of the ship is gained, the original owners will no longer spawn on the boat, and will instead have to catch a mermaid or respawn at a new spot, as if their boat sunk. The crew that took over now owns the boat, and loot within, while the other crew must start from scratch for being foolish. I feel this would work well in the game because it could be that kind of last attack for a crew if they were bested in ship vs ship combat. They can sneak on and punish the unsuspecting crew for letting their guard down. Thank you, and I hope you consider adding this to the game.

  • And what happens to the original ship of the occupying crew?
    And wouldnt it be too simple to get a full ship by just beeing able to hoist a flag.
    This would need you to guard the crows nest 24/7.
    I think the idea has some flaws.

    it's on of these "situational" ideas some have, me also, but then when you think it through more serious you end up with garbage and better scrap it before posting anything - i made posts with ideas and while i wrote it up i recognized i'm trying to justify here and there and are just making artifical rules i already know never work properly and in the end often end up in something completely different from what i wanted and aimed for :P

    then bad things happen - sorry for offtopic, but i just made this and it fits when bad things happen XD

  • @wizard-coder185 would be way to easy, not challenging and engaging. I already high jack ships and go for joy rides... now I could claim them?

    This is a clear no for me, it would be to easy to boot a crew off their ship and steal everything from them as a solo.
