Bowspirit and Staysails

Recommended Posts

At present the ships look rather *off* without having a bowspirit jutting out from the hull, or staysails between masts. The hulls look sterile in a way without the bowspirit, as if they aren't really a ship but instead rowboats with masts. Staysails would be a good filler inbetween your masts for extra speed, they could cost something in the range of .3 sail points per.

Approve, though apparently devs have suggested these will be added at some point. In addition to a bowsprit and sails, which I feel should use regular sail parts, just snapped like an upright mast, just snapped to the bowsprit location, I would like to see some huge sized sails and/or a restriction on maximum sail count to 4 upright masts and a bowsprit. The current maximum ship we can build is at best a second-rate and even first-rate ships typically only had 3 masts. Having huge sails with a sail power of roughly 5.3 would encourage builds with 2 huge masts, a large mast and a large bowsprit.
