ramming speed - 12/1/2017 7:04:47 PM

Often, when I want to ram a ship, the enemy ship is within four hexes, and the line remains green when I place the ram cursor on the target vessel. Will my ship use ramming speed in this instance?

And if it will not, how do i get to using ramming speed, if the enemy vessel is four or less hexes away?

And help will be appreciated.

even if your target is at 4 hexes, if you want to go to full speed, you can select an hex past the target making sure that the line turns red and that it goes through the hex your enemy is. Of course, if your target it's not immobilized, it might not be there when your ship arrives, but at full speed it will arrive sooner ;)

Maybe you can use that title for your next game, the one you are going to do on the galley wars between the Turks and the Christian nations in the sixteenth century.

At least, i hope you will do a game like this.

True, but that does add another area of engagement. It would be awesome to see a good representation of Lepanto and similar battles.
