New Game Idea to Try - Escort
Over the weekend, some members of the ETC helped in trying out a little fun diversion using a quiet SvS server.
The contest is called Escort This game is for two teams, using SvS ships (Spanish vs. French). It's a game for a minimum of four players. But, larger crews will make it much more entertaining. Team 1 - Hunters Any 2 ships, though sloops or war sloops are probably best. Team 2 - Convoy A Galleon or Light Galleon Any Warship The Object: Starting at Cuba, the Convoy will be traveling to Padres, then to Isla Cangrejos. The galleon is a merchant ship and CANNOT use BROADSIDES or SKILLS. It is ESCORTED by the warship, which be fully crewed and use all abilities. The hunters have the single task of trying to destroy the merchant ship before it finishes it run. While the warship attempts to prevent that. Teams can swap between rounds. I would love to hear if any guilds or crews try this idea and give feedback. |
sounds cool, but cant come
|
When is it?
|
BBK has done SVS with 2 war sloops protecting each others back, but never this scenario. Sounds like alot of fun EC..
Question: When you state no Skills-does that include cannons or are you referring to only the Captain's skills? |
This NOT a specific event - per se.
Our guild tried it and I'm asking that if others want to try - post some feedback and offer any criticisms or ideas to improve it. And Lizzy - the NO SKILLS rule is for the Helmsman of the Galleon only. So their ship is as vulnerable as possible. |
I am really sorry I missed this one as it sounded like a lot of fun!! Can't wait until we do it again.

Sounds like a lot of fun , I would like to join in sometime.
|
This sounds like a great idea! I would love to participate when you do this!
I had so much fun during the race, but this sounds better! Let me know when and where! |
O'fury's court would love to come sink yer ships hahaha!
|
I love this idea! maybe I missed something but does the galleon get to use deck cannons? Seems that it would be better if they didn't or were limited to what kind of shot they could use or something.

Dan,
The deck gunner is an option to try. If your hunter ships have a lot of gunners, then the defenders should be allowed them to be fair. EC This is still a concept in testing. |
Did it with me fellow McRaging mates and I gotta tell ya it was a BLAST. With cannon fire going everwhere and the heat of battle just plain awesome. although we did have cannonfire on the SoTL and we also changed up the story on where to go and transportation. Thanks for the suggestion of the game it rocks. Great idea and I'll support ya with this!

This sounds quite fun, reminds me a little of SvS meets Ex. Fleets.
|
You should post next time you try it. It sounds fun, and I think I'd enjoy it. I'd try it with the Legacy, but I don't think they'd have much fun with it......more of a PVP guild than an SVS
|
I'll go get some screenshots later this week. Show ya how fun it is.
