Explosives and their cheapness...

What's up with all explosives having a front cannon suddenly on a war frigate? Huh?

I just sunk with 2 LSC's cause some behemoth had a front explosive cannon.

What's up with them having INVISIBLE explosive broadsides?

I'm getting mad now and D doesn't want to fix any of these dang bugs...

IT IS NOT INVISIBLE!! They are too small to see!! If you try to zoom in on the Behemoth Broadsides, you will see little black dots hurtling towards your ship.

Well, Dog, anyone with half a brain wouldn't be near a behemoth with 2 skulls on board...

War Galleons do not have front cannons. It's the two upper-deck back cannons (on the deck higher than the helm) that can shoot straight ahead.

Explosives are hard to see at night in-game because of how dark everything is.

And last I checked, the only War Frigate that had Explosives was the EITC Juggernaut, and even then it only has Explosive BROADSIDES.

Behemoths, and other War Gals, dont shoot you if you are directly in front of them, but if you are at a slight angle they can shoot. Really, I can easily avoid this, as I am a very experienced sailor, but I would like them to make explosives be easier to see. Maybe have them highlighted a little bit, or leave a trail behind them like round shots do.

Maybe explosives being hard to see is supposed to be part of what makes them the most dangerous enemy ammo in the game? Also, a few explosives from a Behemoth would not be able to sink a war class ship so quickly that the sailor had no time to get away unless the ship was seriously damaged already.
