Mencenary troops but not mercenary ships

[hunkypex]

Would it be a good idea to have mercenary ships. You could use them when you really want to get some enemy ships out of a sea province/lane what are they called?
im assumeing there arent alread, i havent seen any.

It has been mentioned on theses boards b4 about being able to implement merc or pirates ships.As it stands at the moment you can not recruit merc or pirate ships.

The devs in there infinite wisdom may or may not decide to expand on this feature in later releases or patches.But trying to second guess what goes in the mind of a CA dev is no small erm... fete? feat? feet?

Personally I would like to see this area developed to some extent allowing for more complex battles and trading.


Ps,Mirth hates it when he agrees with people because his post are 33% longer http://www.totalwar.org/ubb/smile.gif

If you win in a sea battle maybe booty should be got from enemy trading vessels i dont think thats there is it?
Id like to see tactical sea battles too, maybe a victory condition "protect the convoy" or such.
