I believe Dan has already stated that there will only be one type of seagull in SHV - the European. Yes, I know, it's a disappointment, but studies of the market have shown that if the game were to be limited in this fashion, the European type was far and away the most popular. The upside of this development is that it will be a fully modeled, graphically perfect and 100% historically accurate European seagull and, should you catch one, you will be able to examine it in exquisite 3D detail from beak to tail feathers.

Also, soup!

There is one gull in the game. The Laughing Gull.



I can hear this gull all the way in Romania!

J/K Dan!

When we shot one, and it drops near in the sea, will we be able to pick it up to make the soup? and what if a modder makes us an African version? are we still be able to pick it up? and the cook, will he deny cooking it or doesnt he care and can this be modded?
Also when they are 'unladen' their inners on the foredeck does it stay when submersed or does it wash off? and is there any tactical use of of both ?

questions...
