the pirate caribbean hunt how to board ships

For some time till you get more gold, they are good. If you have chance to capture good ship - do it, even if it takes time.

So do not waste too much gold into upgrades unless you know, that you are going to keep the ship - even in secondary harbors. Keep in mind that 'same' ship can vary in number of the cannons - there are i.e. But if you can get MoW or frigate at the beginning on enemy - it is many times one-shot and enemy is still in water.Īt least brigantine and barquentine have 2 forward and 3 rear cannons - so they are more suited to shoot at pursuer. So nimble ships can do great damage to you staying out of your firing arcs.Ĭorvettes are great for disabling ships sails because they turns well, so can turn into enemy, fire salvo at sails from frontal/rear edge of the side and evade before enemy can turn broadside at you. But it is muscle as it is not very maneuverable and no-go zone is big. MoW has 4 front guns, 2 rear, so it is good to shoot in pursuit of the enemy (rest is 2+2 guns). My fleet-of-war consists of the corvette, frigate and man-o-war now (it replaced other either frigate or galleon). They are well ballanced and many small pirates just flee. I have fleet of 3 galleons (fully upgraded) that do majority of the trade and they are able to hold they own in majority of battles. My biggest ship till now is man-o-war, and it is also biggest ship encountered. I have comment under some guide about ships. More general answer (and REDUNDANT, as you have galleon)
