I have come up with an idea for a new class of people with advanced sailing knowledge.
This class would have stronger ship abilities and instead of having a raft, would begin the game with a skiff. They would be able to summon different strengths of galleon (Skull Island (Weak), Monquista (Weak), Cool Ranch (Medium), MooShu (Strong), Marleybone (Strong)), who would then dock next to your battle (whether it is ship or land), and then the crew (the natives of that ship's world) join your fight.
uh then the game would be too easy with the ships i dont like your idea if you got a skiff first im ok with that but the rest of idea just is bad i dont like it
