Ships?

[Pomerania Prince]

Are ships in the game? Will they play any role in trade or war? We have ports so we should have ships.

[Frank Fay]

Yes, we have ships :D

They are mainly for transportation.

[Pomerania Prince]

troops or good? no warships?

[Frujin]

In the medieval all ships were actually warships. There were not at that times tankers, cruisers, etc... :)

[G_R]

Well if there are going to be warships in KoH it would be very cool if they also could gather experience and upgrade with each level achieved!

[hase957]

Will you need special tradeships?

lmao what about submarines? :D

[Frujin]

The only submarines were Knights with Full Plate Armor. They were able to dive pretty deep, but unfortunately they never menaged to get back to the surface :)

haha :cheers:

I think that Holy Roman Emporer Frederik Barbarossa was one of these submarines.:bday:

[Jeremiah]

yeah poor barbarossa his german forces was the largest of the 3 nations going into the holy land,probally woulda been different if they continued on

Here's another question about ships: Will we actually see soldiers and crewmen on the ships in KoH, unlike in many other games, where the ships are manned by an invisible crew, and with arrows shooting from the bow, without any apparent archers? I'd really love to see at least a small crew on my ships, which maybe leaves when they come into port.

Sort of. You will see them on the boats when they land on a foreign realm.

No you wont need, but there are tradeships.

But where do you use them for, since the trading will only be globally?

Visual enhancement. A harbor without ships would ****. When you switch to Close View on a harbor you will see them, when they get loaded & unloaded. In WV you see them moving between the harbors.

[Lord Nicko]

How many different types of ships will we get in our harbour?

Transport ships are these used for trade and also moving your armys?

How many groups/units can we put on a ship?

Can ships fire on other ships?

Do we have Fishing Boats/ships?

[Elewyn]

And "battle" ships? I mean ships with special platforms for archers/crossbowmen. Or what about using he greek fire?

Are naval battles possible?

[Lord Nicko]

I personally hope there are no battle ships of any type!

I prefer we concentrate on land battles and castles!!

[Jarlabanke]

We must have seabattles!
