A FANTASY of NEW TRADING, HUNTING, and THIEVING

ok, i was just discussing with my friends how sweet it would be to be able to ride on ships in sro to trade. Like instead of buying oxes, elephants, and other land-bearing trade animals...Joymax should let us trade on the water :D

let me go into more detail: I'm talking about like buying goods at a specific dock and trading on the water. They could make trade ships, hunter ships, and thief ships. Trade ships would move slower of course, and still spawn thieves on board the ship OR spawn thief ships that would attack the trade ship. Also thief and hunter ships would move faster than the trade ships. Thief and Hunter ships could have cannons or something like that, or when the thief boat got close enough to the trade ship, the thieves could nuke, and or shoot arrows at the traders to try to sink their boat (or kill the traders) when the trade boat dies...the goods float for a matter of minutes, giving the thieves time to load the goods on their ship.

SRY if no1 likes the idea..i was just kinda dreaming about how cool it would be to have this!

who agrees?

p.s. *Joymax will never invent this, i was just dreaming*

also, i think when hunter, traders and thieves level up their job experience their ships should grow stronger and maybe a little faster.

and btw, i'm not talking about taking away the land trades either...the ship trades would just be added on. not overtaking land trades.

not to mention, where will this arena be held. i think this thread is kinda fail. theres no way this can be implemented to game without adding too many stuffs. plus what about bots? they will just conquer the system

Oh yes, let's destroy the whole meaning of the name 'Silkroad' and introduce pirates!

Silkroad is actually the name given to the route on which people would trade goods to other continents and gain profit, hence the whole trader/thief thing.

cool idea but not hunter ships hunter should be on the merchant's ships, then again it would be perfectly possible to have a small fleet covering the precious cargo in real life

Silkroad Online

Not Triangle Trade Online

Then you'd have to have slaves too, which is... not good.

you could buy them at a slave npc, but they would be auctions held every so many hours, so you'd have to bid on them depending how good they are or how bad you want one
