Hi fellow UnchartedWatersians. π
I haven't been active in a while but I still love UW New Horizon.
I recently saw a great movie called The Admiral: Roaring Currents.
It's about Yi Sun-sin (Korean Admiral) who defeated a Japanese army of 333 ships (133 warships + 200 support and transport ships)with 13 warships called Panokseon.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panokseon
The Japanese warships were Atakabune. I got to see them in action in this movie.
Right after watching it I went to wikipedia to learn about this guy and I discovered that Tekkoussens are actually larger Atakabune but reinforced using iron plating.
These used to be my favorite ships in the game but now I wish there were also panokseon. Those ships can turn on a dime because of their flat hull, making them deadly during combat since they can accommodate many cannons on both sides.
The disadvantage is the slower speed though.
Anyway that's what I had to share. π
BTW, the Korean admiral didn't lose any ships but the Japanese lost 31. π
