carronades for me. love up close brawling.

Thanks for your video's, new to Naval Action and these have helped heaps. Now if only I could get my ping down whilst playing in Australia I'd be really happy.

Loving your videos, man.

with the new crew changes Carronades have a benefit due to the weight and crew requirement. Problem is most large fights the fleets want everyone in a 'conga line' and you find yourself not shooting for 75% of the battle until the lines collide. As a Mercury fan, this makes me sad, as a Merc with 24lb carronades is a great ship imo...just doesn't mesh well with fleet tactics.

Great vids mate, very helpful

Thank You!! I'm reading Andrew Jackson and the Miracle of New Orleans. The book states the USS Carolina (eighty-nine-foot vessel) armament included a dozen twelve -pounds carronades and three long nine-pound cannons.

Great channel - hope you do more 👍

You forgot a really important factor. The reload speed, and mediums have the best reload speed, carronades next then the slowest are the long guns IIRC

This video has very good quality video and audio. Keen to play this game when occasion permits. I've read that the carronades are devastating as you said it is just that their range is very short. "Yardarm to yardarm range" I think they called it.

Nice video again. Longs take the longest time to reload, and, I think, carronades take the shortest.

i recently started playing the game and upgraded my initial ship to 12 lb caronades. The first tier missions usually have me circling pretty close with the npc ships so i figured more dmg = more xp = i can upgrade my ship sooner.

the 12pd carronades say long does that mean they are long rang or can the extend

is there any difference in damage between the different cannons when using grape or chain?

Give me a Niagara with carronades. I'm a demolition derby driver. I like to brawl

I usually use the meds, a good all-rounder :) !

I like to cap NPC traders on my spare time, so I run a snow with long cannons on the bow and stern. Just fall in line with a fleeing ship, chain their sails, and use round shot to knock down their masts. Whether I run longs or carronades on the sides is mostly down to my mood.

Do you play any other games you are planning making videos about?

Long is a must have in big PvP battles, you will lose with anything else.

ayy lmao, I was searched youtube like 2 days ago looking for what a cannonade was then found this video. hhhhhh carronades area my shit i just go all in and do work.

I'm confused - how can medium guns do MORE damage than long guns? What gives the long guns more accuracy and range is a higher velocity of shot due to their longer barrels, and so as a consequence, they have more penetration at range "X" than medium guns that have a lower velocity. So a medium gun that penetrates less than a long gun does more damage???
