That is pretty much the description of most naval battles. Just insert "bows" or "cannon" where it reads "catapults" for the appropriate era.Originally Posted by currywurry
You wouldn't make friends here: most of our great naval heroes flourished between 1550 and 1700... Let's just mention the Great Armada of 1588 here...RTW or Napoleonic Era navies are much more exciting. From about 100AD up till the 1700's was a dark age for naval combat, with not much taking place, and not many advancements in the way ships fought.
Anyway, I would be all in favor of naval battles, although they do seem to be not quite as important in the early era (even though I'd like to see some Genoese in action against Saracen pirates, and vice versa). And I'd love to a battle like Sluys!![]()
