Message text :p neko maybe rocciolo wanted to know something about game rulez ^^
dear rocciolo,
u noticed your ships can fire from broadside (bordate in italiano). Range is 10 hex, and bonus are given from distance and numbers of guns, crew type , etc. There's a bonus for position of enemy ship relatively to yours firing ship. If u are firing that ship and due to its position that ship CANNOT return fire (u note that ship axis is quite normal to your ship axis) it is RAKE, and rake fire got a big bonus.
Imagine the cannonballs pass from the stern to the bow (poppa a prua o viceversa) destroying and killing all that they met along.
Saying it more simply, to get rake fire you must target the enemy ship, and that ship must not be able to target you. |
