Why are they having to pull all the shards down for 3+ hours in the middle of the day in order to implement this publish?

Surely there has to be a better way. :o

I don't see myself getting the Brittanian Boat right away. Maybe later on down the line. If the New Ship actually had some nice features to make it worthwhile then I would rush out to get it.  An increase Bonus of somekind to fishing or something unique besides the house add-ons.

Navigating the New Large Boat around other boats is going to be a pain in the arse.  I have hard time in the small legacy boat sometimes.  

It's also been noted that the Orc Ship does more damage than the Brittanian Ship. You can't insta-log on the ship.

What the Devs should have done is introduce those mysterious Cannons  (http://www.uoguide.com/Cannon) and make then only placeable on the New Ship. That and increase the damage so it's more than that of the Orc Ship.

I'm going to guess that the price of the orc ships will drop a bit -but not much

I paid 6M and 7M for the last two Orc Ships I purchased. I thought those were good prices. We'll see if they come down even more.

The Orc ship is in many ways superior so I don't know how much the new ship will affect the price of the Orc Ship.

This patch is fixing a few high profile bugs also.  That's why it's going in in the middle of the day. :)  It's a rushed patch to fix a few glaring and highly exploitable bugs.

Jeesh, I'm out of the loop. Here is the list from this publish of "items for which I have no effing clue what they're talking about" LOL:

Britannian Defenders
Netherbolt/Eagle Strike/Bombard
Vet Reward Rugs
Spell Plague
white leather dye tubs
metal dye tub
town that is/was invaded

This is very overwhelming for me *sniff*
