iClassic: Introducing Ship Warfare!

Arg me mateys! Either grab ye'self a worthy crew or stick to the land because out avast the' high seas awaits a plunderin' full adventure!

Grab ye'self some gralats and head out to the Yorktown Naval Supplier where ye can be supplied with yer very own boat for whatever ye eyes have your heart fixated on!'

Merchant ship? Need to get yerself floatin' past the combat at ridiculous high speeds, arrg then grab yerself a Merchant ship. What lacks in weapons makes up for in maneuverability and speed

Gun Boat?Want to charge into Naval Battle as a lone wolf? Compact and deadly guns fixated for the use by one person? Pick up yerself a gun boat using deadly precision with single cannon balls to bring sinkin' upon those who oppose ye

Brig? Want to strike fear in those who challenge ye guild? Grab two guild mates to man ye cannons and set to sail with the mighty brig! Utilizing extra cannons for the operation by a crew, the Brig is heavy and slow but is the heart of a naval attack and will reign down cannon balls upon ye opponents puny ships!

And now mateys, do not forget the legendary exclusive ships!
Pirate ship: A reward to a guild for acheivin' high guild hours, the pirate ship utilizes the power of a brig however with faster sails for quicker plunderin' and an exclusive look!

Ghost Ship: A Halloween exclusive, a few halloween Ghost ships are given out each year to the strongest sailers of the land who compete and rise out on top! The ghost ship Utilizes the power of a brig however it can use fog to stay out of vision of uncanny pirates! The ghost ship is the universal sign of "ye about to be sunk" and is not to be trifled with!

What to do with ye ships? Ye ask?

Ye ships can be used to pk in the mighty vast oceans of the Classic world! Might ye be a daring sailer, ye can traverse into the deep south waters and join in the mighty naval battles in a chance to grab some major loot from a lucky kill! Be prepared for boss battles to arise on the wide sea and to take them down with yer crew, or to team up with nearby ships to fight for survival! Be prepared for major loot drops!

At the Naval spar center a guild can put up to 10 members into a ship battle in an enclosed area to fight for guild naval spar wins! Top Guild Naval Sparrers can compete in their own GST, where exclusive ships can be rewarded to the most powerful plunderin' pirates who sink all others! Arrg!  

Awesome Idea, +rep  

Really like this idea +rep  

I don't think there is even enough water in classic for this  

Great idea but sadly I don't think staff would do this . Yeah not enough water for this lol and if this did happen imagine all the players using boats you wouldn't be able to see the water lmao  

Well I was thinking along the lines of an extension south sea that would serve as PK grounds for these ships .

Also, the larger guild ships would be expensive/hard to earn so only true guilds focused on competing would attempt to gather the gralats to afford these (that is not to say some kids will not milk their mommies credit cards, which is not bad because it is good for the server). This means most people would use small ships to keep things from cluttering !

I tried to keep the scripting variable down to something I would say I could at least see staff attempting, although it is a little farfetched. Still, the idea sounded fun to post, who knows when staff will get inspired by one of your ideas  

fyi-
Serif fonts are easier to read on paper
San-serif fonts are easier to read on a screen
kthx.

I wouldnt mind seeing boats / small ships that work similar to a mount. And a cannon that does .5 damage and works similar to arrows. Thatd be cool. Be I dont see it becoming a huge implementation.

The main reason I disagree with this and the water mount thread is, york is the only place with a significant amount of water.

My font is easy to read, so I do not see why that was a necessary post.  

'tis be a great idea. I lust sailin' on me ship all day 'n seein' th' ocean... me Graal Classic Avatar gunna surely lust it too!  

I get confused with the pirate talk. So I'm not sure if this is a place where 10 ppl take a boat and fight other boat guilds to the top until they are qualified for the boat gst to only be awarded with a stronger boat?  

Bring back Nimda, Avalon, and other islands and this theme would fit quite well.

It's freebased, I just wanted to inspire some naval update discussion, mostly because of the water-mount system being proposed in another thread.

In my particular idea I was adding a gst-like idea where guilds can use boats in a "water spar arena" to fight the other team. Most ships would hold 1-3 people and fire cannonballs.

Why not make it so that 1 ship attacks the other ship in order to get all of its loot. And if the ship attacking doesn't get the amount of loot they're suppose to get they fail and the defensive team gets points to enter the gst. Also the team can buy upgrading systems for defense but each upgrade is 5k+. That means if I buy defense it cost me 5k the. I upgrade more which will cost 10k be. If I want to upgrade again it'll cost 20k. So it doubles. The highest it could possibly go to is 160,000 gralats ( people in that team can chip in some money to pay off defenses. The team that wins the gst gets a boat that's very difficult to defeat. Guilds can get more recruits for their team if they pay a very high price. The boat should be a 2-3 story boat so you have to get to the bottom later of the boat. Players can customize their boat by placing defensive items that they get from upgrades. Many traps, metal blocks (to block the path of players to get to their loot and can only be taken down by slashing the blocks to a certain amount of times.) fences (similar to metal blocks.) are included with the upgrades.
Sorry if my grammar is incorrect im using an iPhone.  

I had been working a post with my ideas for this for 2 hours (no exaggeration). I had revised it thrice, and I was 98% done formatting it and my phone died... Never read>think>posting again :|  

Never will happen no space.
