There was no open world with which to explore, only encounters to be selected from a list of famous battles or throughout the normal course of the campaign.
In the opposite direction, there were some battles on the open sea involving more than 40 different ships at a time. Sometimes the player was tasked with bombarding a shore-based fortress or running a blockade on a port. One also had to keep his crew in fighting shape with proper leadership, as a poorly commanded Ship would be mutinied by the crew, thus losing command and the battle.Ī new addition to Age of Sail 2 was the inclusion of Land objectives. Reloading a single cannon would take around a minute, with each reloaded cannon allowing more crew to load the rest.
Firing could be controlled with a simple "fire all" option or one could command each cannon to fire one at a time by clicking on its icon on the ship outline. This was not a simple game, as it required able handling of the sails and knowledge of sailing in order to bring your ship up to anything resembling fighting shape. The player can begin a single player campaign as either the British, French or Americans or take to the Internet in a client-to-client multiplayer. Take control of a single sailing vessel or an entire fleet in this Age of Discovery era Naval Warfare simulator.
