A first glimpse of ships

As seen by Selkrener. Posted under Lithmeria as a Misc log.

This is a short log of Lithmeria's ship system including a short firing demonstration between two frigates just outside of Lamaar Bay. Please check out http://forums.lithmeria.com for more information.

Edit: The display errors in the map were fixed, also allowing the orientation on The Floating Target to be visible in the ship map.

This looks promising! Really looking forward to see more logs from this realm.

Nice to see that someone copied Evarayn's ship system... almost identically.

Also, isn't that the west coast off of Lornia, in your screenshot?

Our ship system visually bears some resemblance to Evarayn's as well as others, yes, there aren't many ways to represent ships in text, I'm afraid. There are key differences mechanically however, such as wind, currents, a Sailing skill, and ship combat. And no, the geography of Lithmeria bears no resemblance at all to Evarayn's. We will be posting a world map at some point the future. Thank you for your interest, and you are welcome to further pursue the discussion on our forums, if you would like.
