Great guide, but already been created. I do like how you have merged pictures with words in this - maybe we can merge our two guides into one somehow. PM me if you want to do this. I don't want the mods to delete your guide because it really is a good one. Thanks.

I can't imagine anyone removing a post because there is similar information in other threads. I admit I didn't read any of the other guides on here as I already learned what I needed to in beta and really just waited until we were sure of how the final version of the game would go before making our official version of our guides.

I shared what I've learned as a way to give back as we have done on other games including toontown, shot-online, fishing champ, etc. I didn't write one because yours wasn't good enough (I really haven't read a word of it), nor to upstage anyone. It is good and healthy to have lots of people offer suggetions and views on these things.

The pictures in my guide are stored on my server and the links are easy enough to find on this thread. Feel free to use them as long as you give credit to their source.

Again, the real guide exists on our forum and this was more or less a cross post to try and help people who may not ever venture to our forum. Because I have tons and tons of server space we allow a lot more liberal use of pictures and space and down the road there will be tons of good guides (including fraps movies) and pictures of all things related to the game.

This guide looks rather professional I must say,

And it also includes some information about sailing and sea battles that isn't in the other guide (such as movement, strategy, actual requirements, stats of the ships, playing with other players).

Nice work on all the information, pretty much all of those topics covered is what I had to figure out with help of more experienced players or just by finding it out myself.

Nice guide.

The combat section is really good. I almost exclusively use a Sloop. I usually pull out in front of an oncoming ship and hit with a broadside. If I have enough distance, I'll run to a cannon and shoot away as it closes. Then, after the broadsides have charged some, I'll return to the wheel and blast the oncoming ship again.
