"Add a Historical Ship "Nau" – Bigger Than Galleons – for 6-Player Crews!"
The Ship Nau was a larger and more robust ship than the classic galleon, used by the Portuguese in the 16th–17th centuries. With 3 masts, heavy cargo capacity, and superior size, it dominated long voyages and trade routes, becoming an icon of maritime exploration.
Suggestion for Sea of Thieves:
The current 4-player crew limit can be frustrating for larger groups. Introducing a Ship (Nau), historically bigger than galleons, would solve this! Features could include:
- 6-player crew capacity: Sail with bigger squads of friends or communities.
- Size & Power:
- Larger deck and hull (reflecting its historical role as a giant of the seas).
- 6 cannons (2 more than the galleon) for intense naval battles.
- Slower speed to balance its firepower and size.
- Unique Gameplay:
- "Cargo Hold" mechanic for storing extra loot.
- Multi-step repairs (e.g., teamwork required for mast fixes).
Why This Matters:
- Historical Accuracy: The Nau’s size and dominance over galleons would add authenticity.
- Social Flexibility: Perfect for streamers, clans, or players with large friend groups.
- New Challenges: Managing a bigger ship with 6 players would create fresh PvP/PvE dynamics.
