Well I do like that I got the Barbary Corsairs dlc without having to pay extra and on discount. And I don't like RyanE. Those are my starting points.

Say Gus, how did you manage to get the Barbary Corsairs dlc for free? How do you get recognized as an EA buyer? Will they just include the dlc when I purchase the EA version, even if I get it on sale?

Questions, questions, questions.

Just now bought it and I got the Barbary Coast DLC.

Excellent, I'll give it a try. Thanks.

Honestly I totally forgot about the Barbary Coast DLC. But as you can see from the screenshot above everyone who buys now is an EA supporter, I suppose.

Me too! Good looking game. I have no idea how to control anything. It's great! Chaos!

More attention should be focused on new customers getting the DLC for free. Who exactly is paying for it?

Sir Slash

Sorry JH. No intention to hurt your feelings Man.  :hug:  The videos I've seen look a lot like Empire TW, so what's different other than a campaign to play? And why does Gus have his blinds open?

Totally different games, hard to compare.  If you have time sensitive coupon from Matrix, maybe go with Shadow and get Age of Sails game later...I am sure it will go on sale again.

I have it.  In the limitted time I have played it, it is fun.  The land battles have a TW-vibe to them.  The naval model is fairly good, although I'm not sure it will work for more than a small squadron.

SE for sure. It still needs polishing, but it is an addictive, complete game. Admiral, not as much. SE has some (Two ) poorly documented but vital bits of feedback data that make it a whole lot easier to manage. I'll try to find a thread to post them.

Make that three -  forgot about research.

Don't misunderstand, all the stuff is done in a great way! But the feedback to the player allowing him to manage it is lacking pretty badly on a couple of things. Posted items in the Shadow Empires thread   http://www.grogheads.com/forums/index.php?topic=24408.165

As far as Ultimate Admiral goes, , it looks great and I am excited to have gotten it at 25% off.

Enjoying UA:AOS. After it was released I picked it up. So I do not get the DLC. But I am over early access at the moment. Was happy to wait.









Sending a boat over with an officer and crew to take control of an enemy that had struck her colours. If you do not do this the enemy eventually withdraws the strike and becomes active again. Of course destroying the vessel entirely and completely prevents any thoughts the enemy crew may have of shenanigans. If their ship starts to sink the enemy crew may board boats. I know not what happens if they reach any of my ships!
