TKF Presents:

-Naval Battle-

fedc742bfcc85c0a082cf924c4a67ace_13132.jpg

Featuring manual based cannon combat like in Sid Meyer Pirates and Corsairs! A nice alternative to standard battleships maps.

Short Description: This is an intense AOS ship game that requires skills to sink your opponents. Unlike other Battleships maps with autofire with weapons, this map do purely have 100% manual cannon fire in this fun cannonball game. The map also feature ship boarding.

Features:
AOS/RPG Style: While fighting the enemy empire, you have the option to open the supply route from motherland, travelling outside the main area to search for treasures in the west in the forbidden waters or to the east on the open ocean. Fighting the neutral hostile pirates might give you some extra gold you need to win the game.


AI:
Practice against AI computers or just play for fun. A complex AI which can provide some challenge, higher difficulty will give them more one time "bonus gold". However AI can't match up with the best players.

Information:
This map has a unique cannon combat system makes this map unique from other ships AoS/Battleships maps you have played where you trigger the shots by your hand and feel the joy when you make a lot of hits. The maps cannon system that makes this kind of a "snowball" game you can enjoy many hours of fun gameplay along with other players.

You can try out numerous of tactics such as doing short range tactic for successful hits, long range combat, fire based cannons to make enemy ships burn, boarding tactics, capture empire ships, ramming, trading, exploring hidden areas of the map etc... or you can just focus where the action happens.

This map has similar terrain to the battleships maps. Although it has shocking similarity to the battleships when you start the game, most items are remade and all weapon based items is replaced. My main intent with this map is to give battleships a more realistic cannon system which makes this more fun multiplayer game with a slower pace and a much different gameplay from the normal battleships maps

For new players, they can practice against computers, as they learn how to play the game by watching the computer.

Moreover, all weapons is remade and turned into several classes:

Weapon Classes:
Ordinary Cannons: Standard cannons does good damage against ships and structures
Shell Cannons: Effective against ships, but is ineffective against structures
Missile Cannons: Like standard cannons, but do have extreme long range.
Anti-Crew Cannons: Does little damage, but kills much crew on each hit
Sail Ripper Cannons: Does medium damage and slows enemy ships
Fire Cannons: Direct hits causes the ship to ignite and cause burning damage over time
Siege Cannons: This weapon does bonus damage against structures.
Acid Cannon: This weapon does reduce the armor. It does only exist 1 acid cannon type weapon in the game.
Frost Cannons: This weapon has a chance to freeze a ship for 3 seconds.
Seeker Cannons: This weapon does have a proximity homing ability which follow its enemies.
Lightning Cannons: This weapon does have chain lightning ability upon impact.
Critical Cannons: This weapon does cause quadruple damage upon critical hits.
Shockwave Cannons: This weapon damage several units in a line and ignores obstacles and cliffs. Expensive but useful.
Torpedo: The submarines main weapon and it's only available for the submarine. It has a chance of ripping apart the hull of the enemy ship.


Items:
Repair wood: Limited to 5 charges, and does now replenish health over time instead of instant heal.
Hulls: Adds slightly more hp and damage reduction, but also reduces speed
Hull Reinforcements: Adds more armor to the ship.
Sails: Increases the speed of your ship. (doesn't consume inventory slots.)
Crews: Gives a certain stat bonus to the ship crew
Boarding Hook: Gives you the abilities to board ships and capture them.
Structure Kits: Builds a tower or a cannon fortress
Bomb: Places a high explosive bomb which does 7200 damage, but be careful so you don't blow yourself
Repair kit: Allows you to repair selected tower of friendly ship
+++

New abilities:
Naval Mines: The lugger may lay mines, so unfortunate ships can trigger it
Infiltration: With the infiltrator you can steal enemy techs
Barrages: Some ships does have a barrage ability, which allows them to fire lots of cannons in selected area
Captain Cannon: Improves the ships front cannon. Bigger ship classes has more powerful front cannon.
Ramming: (Interceptor and ram hull item) Causes the ship to ram into another ship for damage. This damages both ships.
Boarding: (Destroyer, Pirate ships and grappling hook item) This causes your ship to do an attempt on capturing the enemy ship (hero ships are sunk).

Systems:
Kill Assist System (New): Gives your teammates a percental share sinking enemy heros ship
Critical hit system: Gives you a chance of inflicting double damage
Multikill system: Gives you bonus gold for multikills and streaks.
Capture Abandoned Ships: Just move close up to the ship.
Burning System: Your ships might burn down if they are hit by a fire cannon. Using water item will remove the flames quickly.
Crew System: Mana shows how much crew your ship has.
Boarding System: Explained above
Damage System: Shows how much damage your ship has suffered in red numbers
Keyboard Movement System: Allows you to steer your ship with your keys, if you enter -move command
Cannonball System: That's a basic movement engine for the cannons

Ships:
Different abilities: I've added a lot of new ships. All the ships have various abilities. There is over 21 ships to choose from.

New Hero Stats:
Carpenter Skill: Increases the effectiveness of lumber usage, constant ship repairs and slighly makes your ship stronger. Decreases the chance of making the enemy land a critical hit on you.
Accuracy: Makes your cannonballs spread less and make you aim better. Also increases the chance of landing critical hits by 0.5%.
Crew Strength: You loses less crew when hit by weapons and attacked, also it makes your chances for boarding more successful, also if you're boarded, you will more likely to surive the boarding

Trainer:
Boosts hero stats: The lumber is replaced with ability points. You get ability points when you level and when you kill enemy ships. This trainer look like an old paladin.

Leveling:
Stats increase: You gain 2 random stat increases for each level and the ship gets 1% increase of base hp (in strongmode it only gets 0.5% pr level). At level 26, you gain land crew ability, but you can always use -ul command.

Terrain:
Average: I know this isn't the best terrain, but it's playable for an AOS. It's very similar to the skeds original bs terrain. I have slightly changed the mainbase terrain.

This should be playable at latest version of wc3 but I'm unsure since I used 1.26 editor. Anyway I'm not aware of any fatal errors, so unfortunately I haven't found any and i won't do anything with the AI since i don't recall how i did it for 2 years ago.

But it seems this should work again cuz blizzard messed up with Buttonpos thing and at some later patch renabled it again and made this map unplayable for awhile.

If I get no feedback before 1 Jan 2018, I cannot promise to make a quick update. This may be the final update. But with so little wc3 players nowadays, you must get friends to fill the game. Its fully playable 2v2 though. Anyways this is a fun map to try to friends i hope.

You can try this map with AI if you wanna test it of play it.

This is a brilliant map
However I keep encountering fatal errors in every game to the point where I have to save the game and sometimes loading the save results in a fatal error
It happens when I have 4AI and 5AI on other team
It usually happens just as I'm about to fire a weapon (upgraded cannon) but may be coincidental
Suspect it is just a trigger/garbage handling issue

I think this map deserves a bit more promotion and would be great with warcraft reforged and all, don't let it die

I keep crashing saying there was FATAL error. I keep getting bugged when i go on Shore leave to pick up my weapon from the captains hut then reembarking. the ship would forever be on invulnerable state. Then I have no choice but to leave the game.


Im playing on wc3 1.26. I am updating it now to 1.27b and will try to play see if the issue still persists
