quick naval question!!

[Lias_solano]

Just a quick question.When i assign a few ships to a group i cant seem to change the sail speed of the group.i click on the + or - icon for the ships speed and it doesnt change. Anyone know if this is a known bug or am i doing something wrong??

They can only move as fast as the first ship. So if you have a ship that can go 18 speed and the other ships go 16 speed, you can't furl all the way or they'll crash into each other.

They will move different speed I believe, if you issue each ship a separate order.

eatme is right! When you group your shipes a lot of stuff is being done automatically. But its not clever to give each ship his own orders. Before you know it the cohesion of the group is lost and the battle gets a lot more difficult to manage. In my experience "no cohesion --> more likely to lose a battle".

I group my ship all the time and issue the fire orders per ship. All the rest i manage by group.
