Hello all! Ship combat is now live in the beta participation options for the demo.
NEW MECHANIC LAYER - COMBAT
Ship combat has been added. Typically, you'll encounter strange sea monsters and faction ships among the Random Event pool. Aside from future bugfixes and voice-acting additions, it's likely that this will be the last major gameplay addition to the free demo (when it becomes the default). Hopefully that provides a good enough taste for the full game!
There is a chance that faction ship encounters coming out of nowhere (compared to the Navy Patrol ships) will feel unfair. That might be fine-tuned, depending.
You can upgrade ATK and AGI combat-related stats to tier 2 at respective faction forts.

Temporarily disabled the Patriot port boycott event until I have the time to figure out what's going on.
