Invasion - being attacked from land and sea

[ruisen2000]

During an invasion, instead of having just one war frigate show up (which could somehow carry some 300 undead ppl for whatever reason...), there should be several undead SOTL's and war frigates. During the fight, they should continously bombard the invaded island with fury rounds dealing damage to players and barricades (damage depending on invasion diffuculty). Kinda like how in the first POTC movie when Black Pearl invaded Port Royal, BP didn't just sit there, it was firing on the island.

i like the idea but it would make invasions even more laggy which would frustrate players alot

It would be too laggy and it would invasions harder if there were seven hundred frigates constantly hitting you WITH the undead attacking you. I don't think even a maxed player with tonics could survive that.

I agree. There is a limit for invasions, and I think the current ones are at that limit. They'd have to sacrifice some parts of invasions to avoid the game crashing if they did that.

I have my own idea for an invasion. Rather than one type of invasion (Undead), there could be another type, with Davy Jones' henchmen attacking instead. The Davy Jones invasion could be tougher than the Undead invasion, for experienced players who have got bored of the same old thing. The boss for that could be Davy Jones, because we've seen pictures of him in the phase files. Just a passing thought.

Maybe, players could launch their own ships to combat them...

[HammyTheSquirrel]

yeah... like, you could actually sail in the harbor (similar to the BP boss battle) and sink regular ships (no SOTL,... would be way too hard to sink). That would mean loot from invasions! Cool!

[Mr. Awesome]

I can imagine it already...

Brigade 1: Round Shot.

Brigade 2: Chain Shot.

Brigade 3: Grape Shot.

Brigade 4: Firebrand.

Brigade 5: Thunderbolt.

Brigade 6: Explosive.

Brigade 7: Fury.

There could be EITC invasions with Beckett trying to take over Tortuga.

Or a reverse feature, Pirates attacking Port Royal/Kingshead and having to destroy the barricades themselves.

I like that idea

Back to my original post, the fury won't really do a lot of damage. Its more of a special effects thing that makes invasions look cool. The damage is more of an AoE damage, so no players get hit really hard. I'm thinking maybe 100-200 damage to every player within 2 metres radius (dodge-able)

Maybe You can have a cannon defense style invasions. So players can mount on cannons on the island and shoot back at the invading ships.

Good idea!
