In a non-sinking blockade, sunken ships fade out and reappear at the island where they were last in port, supplies intact. In a sinking blockade, sunken ships disappear beneath the waves the ship and all goods aboard are lost forever. Ocean Masters and Island Governors may create special event blockades that circumvent these rules.īlockades may be either sinking or non-sinking. Thus, all blockades must begin between noon and midnight on Saturday or between ten and noon on Sunday. The requirement varies depending on the size of the island.Īt the present time, the initial war chest may only be paid between noon and midnight Friday or between 10 A.M. Should the flag disband before the blockade, the island will have no defender (see Ventress LXX for an example of this).Ī contending flag must have the required level of fame at the time it pays the war chest. The flag that rules the island will be automatically entered into the blockade as the defender. There are a few examples of flags having paid a war chest after several blockade rounds have been completed. The new flag must also pay for a war chest, but it may be paid any time before the blockade ends. Once a flag has declared a blockade, then any other flag may also join the blockade as a contender. The declaration of war can not be rescinded until three days after the blockade ends. To blockade a colonized island, the contending flag must have declared war on the flag that rules the island before the war chest is dropped. See Pirate Time for an explanation of Daylight Saving Time changes. Once that happens, the blockade automatically starts twenty-four hours later. A confirmation box appears and the war chest must be paid at that time.
The royalty member must select the "Blockade" button under the Vessel tab. To do this, a member of royalty must be aboard a ship docked at the island to be blockaded. During the hours that the Blockade Window is open, Flag Royalty are the only ones who can declare a blockade.
