I beseech Thee!

1 - it makes NO sense since there are so many cool stategic, tactical and historic elements to Sailing Ship warfare.

2 - why can't the Total War series be modded specifically into a realistic sim? (I wanna know and have control of what the crew is doing - are they loading guns or tending the sails - I want to know how mad my flooding is and I want to control of my stern and bow chasers - and most important i want to tell signal captain of one of the ships in my command to do a specific thing and not just drift away until I have time to clock on his friggin ship again....is that too much to ask? Lord?)

3 - has anyone tried both Nappy Total War and East India Company to cmpare their 2 naval aspects?

4 - does anyone know of a game creation platform that would be best to try to 'built my own' sim?

5 - any news n the horizon for an upcoming commercial or serious mod sim in this genre?

Thanks.

Amen.
