    I don't think so, I haven't tried it but I think the mechanic would be similar to that of the raid voyages diving where you can't dive if there is a ship nearby but you are able to if you have a tucker on your ship.

    A rowboat is NOT a rival ship, its basically the same feature they used to block voting on the war map for hourglass!

    Question come from yesterday fights when we allways find more than one praked rowboats on reaper after sinking opposing BB.

    So block trigger when ship it's like one square away from Reapers?

    @ghutar If you can hear the BB music its crew can't vote to lower.

    @epicgyarados1 Its Ships in proximity for the vote down, not players. The music can be activated by just a player being nearby.

    Thought I'd ask on this thread first.

    See for the proximity block on blade.

    We had a scenario yesterday where we were blocking the blade Sell and cleared all their skelli's. All going great. They moved blade quite far from reapers (like way over a full canon shot length) but our ship was sitting just other side of reaper island and they managed to sell it. Was raging lol.

    Is the proximity for blade between our ship and theirs and doesn't include us being right on reapers?

    @cptn-stephen yeah it's the ship that blocks so they only have to sink you. If your ship is gone they can hand in and it'd be down to you to kill them hand to hand to prevent.

    @hiradc yeh thanks.

    Our ship was still sitting right on reapers on other side. They moved blade away from us and reapers.

    It must have been so tight that they were somehow close enough to reapers to sell, but far enough from us on ship at reapers to block.

    So annoyed lol

    @cptn-stephen it's at least a square on the map so this seems weird
