There are strategical/tactical guides that span the entire game (not just one nation) for all the TW games but this. Most veterans of the TW series know by now how to fight a land war but ETW brought something new: sea battles. I think a naval guide would be a worthwile adition to the guide forum (and to be entirely honest I really suck at them and need some help).

This thread could form the base for a helpful and clear guide.

Proposed format of the guide:

Tactics
Description tactic + initial deplyment + things to beware of while doing said tactic

Type of ship(merchant ships, galleys, frigates, SOLs)
Description of the shiptype + role + tactics
Unit by unit short description + anything peculiar or different
I'm not asking people to write me a whole guide. Just one part at a time would be great (credits given of course).
I'm sure this will be much more handy to everybody than another "help me with ..." thread.

Thanks in advance.
