Why did you flank him against the wind and then use your broadside so far away? Yous hould have flanked him into the wind and used the cahin link broad side and taken out his masts then used the Grape shot and then normal cannon ball which would have killed over half of his crew then you could have boarded and finished the battle within five minutes.
Why did the British not fire. The British blockaded hence were better trained and had a faster rate of fire. For this reason Nelson would happily fight when outnumbered.
Line up parallel with him (but be far enough away to prevent boarding) and full broadside until he sinks????? Kind of a complete waste to cross the T. The only time when crossing the T is worth it is when you are outnumbered and the enemy is actaully charging at you AND they are at a farther range. That close with a multi-decked ship=pathetic hit ratio. Looks like 1 hit every 20 shots. But, I do like the broadside-turn-alteration tactic at the beginning.
dang why use grapeshot on the Brits once they couldnt move? Might as well just drop anchor off his port bow and then rake him like hell... then board him if you want to.
nop no't me i just put high for the movies to the sound does no't freeze like duels. o ya for me it does no't freeze after you board ships just put lower settings.

Simple kiting. Cheap against an AI that can't comprehend it. Still extremely useful, though.

After you diabled his movement why not:

Everything about that action was near-enough perfect. 10*'s!

does anyone else get the game freeze quite often when trying to board ships?

If your ship is hooked on the boarded ship then it is normal that you can't move anymore.
I think that this is what you mean? If you still have control and the enemy is boarding you then you can't move anymore but you can still fire...

It's not that, it's that the game would stop responding, like a permanent pause so i had to restart the PC.
However, the new patch has since come out and apparantly it's an issue that has been addressed!

do you think 6 GB of ram + the rest of your specs is enough to run it on your settings ?
ben5056 2 years ago
of course,
the only thing I have discovered is that Total War doesn't like too much OC on the ati radion 4850 with only stock cooling.
(I have to push back the ATI overdrive slider because it would run too hot )

What settings are you running on?

1920x1200 max settings except "heat blur" because the effect disappears with heavy use of AA/AF.

The tactic is demonstrated here is kind of save.
- first dismast the enemy
- attack the front (not many guns for protection in the frontage)
-use weather advantage and do not take casualties
-no hull damage or other damage
