World of Tanks has IMO a very successful F2P model, with a lot in common with the OP, which I think is spot on.

The trick with F2P models is to offer just about everything for free, but reduce the...

But a general consensus of people who have very little information on the changes and haven't actually tried them yet. Most of the comments were made before the release notes were released, so how...

I love that LSB are being removed! I also love that you're using the 1719 establishment as a basis for classing ships.

What will happen to the existing LSB in game?

Yeah be careful who you give access to, to be fair to FLS that's pretty much the only way they can run things. Don't give someone access to shared warehouses unless you trust them. That's true of...

Crew Focus: Repairs

Works like the other crew focus skills.
Repairs damage to Hull, Armour and Sails slowly whilst giving a penalty to Speed, Agility, Accuracy, Reload and Damage and Grappling.

I like it, clean and simple. Along with the wiki this should give us everything we need.

I agree with this. Leveling to 50 should be a journey not just something you have to do to get to the game. The sub 50 ships are fun and the missions aren't bad. What is needed though is some more...
