How not to maneuver ships (Epic fail HD video)

This is a part of a naval drop in battle, this is actually my second naval battle ever in NTW and hence I hardly know anything although I was still quite winning the match. Needless to say, after this event took place, I pretty much lost the match



PS : How's the video quality? I stretched it to fit to 1080p, I find it better than turning it into 720p.

LOL, nice video ended a bit too quickly though, I was expecting those other two ships to explode when the video stopped.

I didn't purposely create this moment, it happened lol. Those 2 ships don't explode, both of them route due to low morale after a bit more fight. If anyone wants I can upload the full fight.

Hahaha; I liked that. Always a good laugh when human stupidity exceeds the AI.

Nice. Good to see you were playing as Sweden rather than putting the British navy to shame!

It was a drop in battle so I had really no choice .

But thanks guys!

If you would not have slept on your Microphone thing as said in last video thread, The commentary at the two explosions would probably go like this:
"AHHHHHHHHHH, MY SHIP, SWEDEN WHY DO YOU FAIL ME" Then Someone Nearby when your recording would be like, Whats that idiot (not that you are) on about?

I had the grand plan of ramming that ship to their fleet, but it backfired.

Yep, at the point where you tried to push it into them with two of your own ships.

I feel your pain. I hate it when I put my ships way too close ( or the AI thinks its a good idea to park small ships right next to my big ones) to enemy ships that are way smaller. I've had a first rate sink due to it being too close to a brig that exploded .

It happens rarely nowadays, though, because I order my ships to fire chain shot when fighting smaller ones. As the enemy you were fighting seemed to have the same size ships, I don't think that would help.

This brings back memories of banging my head on the wall.
