Hmm, we all know those nice and cool Pirate games, like uhm Bloody Pirates of Battleships Crossfire or even some ripped off Pirates of The Caribean maps. But I have been wondering... What if we make a map with I'm guessing something 2 ships, side to side, just like in those classic moviescenes, and their totally made out of doodads, I'm working on that already a bit but it's very tricky. :S You need to place every plank carefully :S

It's like this what Callahan was up too, but I'm making it more realistic.
You get the point :O What I'm up to a bit.

You'd be suprised...
I was shocked...

I am making a map where two ships are stuck in a battle, with every player as a crew of one of the ships! Fighting on two levels of every ship, using cannons, ect...
Its strange that you and I have the same ideas, no? :D

It's a nice map yeah, but may I ask what are you using for the ships? I'm using purely only doodads and then I put the crews on it :) Adjusted heights so they look like their on the decks etc etc.
