Re: WMP - [DSLR] Sea Dogs - Photobucket account thread
to further the efficiency of this new feature for our fleet, i suggest we tell certain players to go certain ways at certain ports...
i.e.: id take top left quadrant, jrock takes top right, etc etc... that is when we have time to coordinate such diabolical schemes. but imagine being able to sail to st croix and clean up all the while dodging reefs. then those enough powerful to do so would hit up all the spanish and brits.

| yeah good idea, pirates can work together to clear maps.
i haven't thought of a good permanent method, because wind direction will change what quadrants will be most efficient each reset.
But if you are at the same port, those pirates could message each other and say "i'll take up if wind is blowing east or west, and left if wind is blowing north or south" -- the other pirate would do the opposite. (example, if wind was blowing south, you would cover southwest quadrant, and other pirate would cover southeast quadrant). Then try to cover that quadrant as much as you can before you have to start backtracking against the wind. First move would always be a straight line going in the direction you chose, to prevent both people sailing in the direction the wind was blowing from center square and duplicating that line.
Squall winds would throw a spoke into that strategy, tho...
?? Dunno. I'm sure we will come up with better methods as the round progresses. |
