    They do also have Ultimate Admiral Age of Sail which is set during the AWI and encompasses both land and sea actions. This is more of a fleet battle and management game but does take things like the ships from NA. It is in Early access but playable. Also there is a land based game about the AWI coming along the lines of Ultimate General Civil War.
    Ultimate Admiral Age of Sail definitely has some appeal, but I'm not going to invest in early access with Gamelabs. They have established a reputation for not listening to their players and digging in their developer heels much to the chagrin of paying customers (even if it's early access). With so many other hobbies in the queue I can wait.

    I hear ya, but to be fair this is a different development team. All the UG&UA games are developed by the guy who used to develop historical realism mods for the Total War games - Darthmod. Nick Thomazidis(sp). They are also developing an Age of Dreadnoughts game. I agree though the games are going through changes but nothing like what NA did. Still I check the discord groups for updates and to follow the development.

    Thanks Eric. For now I'll just keep hauling "Black Salt" in NA until I make enough millions to purchase a Santisima Trinidad or l'Ocean.

    We seem to have strayed from the subject gents.
    Would you like me to move this to another new thread, or are you OK with the diversion Carlos?

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    No need for an apology Eric. I have done it myself on threads more than once caught up by the interest of the moment.

    Apologies, as I'm the one who diverted the thread.

    As I said to Eric, you really don't need to apologise, but I am sure that Carlos will not mind as we did not totally run off into the sunset with it.
    I am still playing about with lighting effects myself but have not yet managed the rolling effect you get from HMS Victory.
