Combat

Combat is what happens when one enemy fleet encounters another as the result of an attack. The attacker's ships immediately fight against the enemy's ships and defenses, if he has any. There are three possible outcomes of combat

Attacker Wins

At the end of combat if all of the defender's ships and defenses have been destroyed, and the attacker has ships remaining, the attacker will have won the battle and will plunder the defender.

Defender Wins

At the end of combat if all of the attacker's ships are destroyed, and the defender has ships or defense remaining, the defender will have won combat. No plunder will be received by the attacker.

Draw

If at the end of combat both sides have ships left, or all ships have been destroyed, the battle will have been a draw and no plunder will be received by the attacker.

How it Works

Combat is divided into six rounds.
