Sails would lead to higher maintenance costs (additional crew), heavily modify certain turret arcs (i.e. no ahead fire for forward turret, restricted arcs for 1, 2, 3 and etc.). They also should add to fire risk (even if taken in for battle the material is still onboard). But yes, they should be a good "extreme range" capability, or even generate their own "unlimited" (in game terms) range category which fully disables fuel and engine related strategic turn events (i.e. no scuttling/interning due to fuel, no engine damage etc.) . And, while the option should be restricted to ironclads and protected cruisers in combatants it should remain available well into the 1920's for AMC and <900ton KE (after all SMS Seeadler cannot yet be built in the game and there were lots of sail powered "station ships" and even some KFK's received auxiliary sails after WWII).

Aaaand just like that the next expansion starts around the 1st Punic war Now, now, I'm sure there were some important amino acid battles in that primordial soup that could need including... This comment almost made me spew coffee

Aside from all the fun talks about sails and all, would we see some additions of neutral territories? There's a lot of possessions and ports that could be added to the game, especially in the Middle East, South America, and Africa. It would be lovely to see more island possessions in the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans as well.

Would help prevent weird battles where you have a French fleet fighting the Germans in the Baltic. Things like that. If we can't have full operational control anyways because obviously that would be preferable

The Baltic is being addressed, though we are still tweaking the specifics.

Question, if we add sails to our ships, will we be able to burn them to generate a proper smoke screen ala HMS By Jove with her tendency to set her own sails on fire?
