They will be in a separate section of the " Sea battle". How to make them in the campaign mode, I never found a way. And even after 15 minutes, all ships begin to sink. Speaking to the best modders from Russia, but all of them reacted to the idea of the sea battles very sceptical. Nevertheless, I decided to realize naval battles. Although, personally I am interested in the idea of the ground battle in the vast spaces of the whole of Asia.

This is what he said

I think there was another mod that appeared a few years ago (not in April) that claimed to have added naval battles to R:TW but I've not seen that released yet.

I believe the naval battles were going to be only avaialble as a custom battle and not fight out a naval battle from the campaign map.

Needless to say that there was a fair amount of interest in that mod.

There's no way to make this incampaign unless someone changed the engine and hardcodes (illegal). However there is a way to make is in custom battle by painting the land blue color like the sea. Ship models etc can easily be added in RTW engine so there's no problem with that.

From the video it seems that is what was done.

To make it in campaign will involve actually a lot of more work since it will not actually be sea battles but land battle disguised as sea. I'm not sure if one can recolor this disguised land in blue to represent sea. In any case real sea is needed too in the campaign map due to landmass ratio (or something).

In the actual thread they say that these battles will be featured but not in the way that they video implies. Apparently they were able to get battles on sea or somewhat but the ships would sink after a certain amount of time.

Yes because they're using the sea texture. You can test with using normal land units but change the coordinates of custom battle for sea area and see the unit sinks.
