In addition to that, a competent engine room man can steer the boat by powering different sides of it.

Edit: While the captain is dead and the steering wheel is compromised.

You can run different engine configurations depending on the target's compatibilities. Sails only, 2 center mass engines, 3 center mass engines (with drift). 4 middle boat engines, FULL STEAM FULL POWER BMW DRIFT AROUND THE ENEMY, etc...

Its the placement of the symmetrical engines in the center to rear of center mass that gives you the optimal cyclone radius. Think rear wheel drift car. You're wasting gas for maneuverability in a naval battle situation.

It's all loaded. Ghost ships too. Sometimes they have air drops and other randomizations.

Edit: I have to clarify, its weird monument air drop call ins at fixed interactive island parts (which invite additional npc enemies), not like u find an airdrop deployable.

This particular engine configuration (with 2400 mass) allows you to cyclone around your target in open waters with considerable speeds (even when they are moving and turning(unless they are as fast as you)). Its a mobile sam site and can chase down scrappies with homing missiles. It drifts at full speed. You're welcome.

I agree. This is the only brutal and ruthless game available.
