Galleys & Circumnav were the 2 I'd put some thought into; the tech thing was just thrown out there to be shot down really. I didn't really think any of the circumnav ideas would gain traction, was just throwing them out there for consideration. Still think it should be removed, but the consensus seems to be to keep it and I can live with it.

EitB v12 Wishlist/Progress

Couldn't Galleys be 7 str, 3 move, and +25% vs Galleys? Why must they be 2 move?
In base FFH2, it is very strange, because galleys are 5 str, 3 move NO CARGO ... while Tririme's are 7 str, 2 move, 1 cargo ... and u don't have any decent cargo options until the late game ... its quite odd. Anyways, with the new Naval Promotions (-1 str +2 cargo, -1 str +1 move, -1 cargo +1 str) what if all we did was give Tririme 3 move rather than 2? Although we could of course give em +25% vs Galleys if u wanted to :P .... --------------------------- I think +1 for Circumnav is rather silly ... I think it'd be better if it was +1 cargo on all ships or something.
The naval system in EitB is entirely based on that of More Naval AI. The base fame has a incredibly clunky naval system.
I can't quite tell what you're proposing, there.
Erebus in the Balance - a FFH Modmod based around balancing and polishing FFH for streamlined competitive play.
I was thinking this morning about adding a new gamespeed (or scaling the current ones down), at 50% of Normal, or ~66% of the current Quick.
The rationale being, that we consider Quick as the baseline of the (MP) game, with at least 95% of the games being played on that, but there isn't really much options to go beyond that, and there seems to be a need for it - with various measures being proposed in different games to speed up the early game (shades, Discovery, advanced start, spruced capitals, and so on), and even some proposals made. At the same time, there are some people who enjoy the early game setup as it stands, and reasons to worry if we further tweak costs to speed everything up. So this would give an alternative approach. Not a new baseline - it comes with all the downsides of speeding the game up, especially effects on tactics, logistics, and standing army requirements - but an option that different games could experiment with. Thoughts?

call it 'Blazing'
I was proposing Galleys to be 4 strength, 3 move (3 cargo) +50% vs Animals, and Tririmes to be 7 str 3 move, +50% vs Galleys. Caravel + Arcane Barge 4 move Galleon, Frigate, Privateer/Pirate 5 move Man of War + Queen of the Line 6 move!!! I think this would make late-game naval combat more competitive. -> +1 move for the 2 end game ships, + 1 move on Arcane Barge, etc ......

Unless you were proposing two separate options, that is. Anyway, I wouldn't play a game at that speed. People want to speed the early game, but no one ever wants the mid-late game turns to go by faster in my experience. Plus it would get kinda ridiculous, the number of things that can be one-turned. Why build a warrior when you can one-turn an axe? But I guess it wouldn't hurt anything to include it. Except one thing. It seems likely to be buggy. There are a ton of mechanics tied into game speed, it seems like it would be easy to miss one here or there.

Occasional mapmaker Quote:By which you mean, 75% of the current quick? 50%/66% ~=75%. Unless you were proposing two separate options, that is. Ah, true. My brain was kinda burned for maths at the time. I won't include it in v12 without some kind of support, for exactly that reason.

I would much rather have v12 out sooner than wait for the inclusion of a feature nobody asked for and likely no one will use :P
Well, exactly.
