Looks like I am all for Portugal, and my gf is half portuguese too
But question, can you change nationality throughout the game. I thought you gotta pick your nationality at the start and then stick with it although I think you can still choose where to run trade routes, am I right?
Yes you can change nationality at any time but it will deduct a lot of fame. Yes you still can choose any trade route you like with any nationality, they are basic guidelines that has higher market potential and the advantage is almost subtle until you understand most of the game mechanics. It all depends on market potentiality, who owns the ports to avoid higher tax & geographical distance.
Greek ship is available since open beta phase & the Japanese ship is available in the 3rd El Oriente expansion. I think english server starts from the 2nd expansion so we have to wait

So whats the best ship in game that is mostly good for high amount of crew / guns. I used to remember investing in the Japanese ports to get industry level high enough to get them to start building the Tekkousen ships
What are the requirements to start customize shipbuilding? Can you do that in this game?
I don't know the tekkousen ship exists in UWO but AFAIK the best for naval warfare in terms of close combat with high amount of cannons is the France royal galley. Oh you can customize ships vessel anytime but you can build ship with your own materials with the ship building skill. This reduce cost of ship as much as 40% depending on the wood quality & the ship stats are a lot better than stock build.
France royal galley
Naval War for Bremen (Venice allied with England & Ottoman empire vs. Holland allied with Portugal)
too many things going on in war so its really difficult for me to explain
yeah, each player = 1 ship & no NPC ship follows you unlike the offline version.
PvP system has a few modes BC battle - like pvp room pirate - pirate human ships at dangerous sea zone huge naval war - country vs country war land pvp - not sure never tried, 3rd expansion has deck battle
nah, its called global for a reason. IP block usually happens because of the region restriction clause in the license agreement. And there will be an update on that website (hopefully CBT date announcement) at 3pm today so stay tuned.
Of course I'm going to play, I have a team of friends who are willing to join my cause for global economic domination. Viva la espana!
ALRITE, CBT announcement made! Check out their updated site

Territories that service is not available are China, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea and Taiwan. Game download and game server connection will be blocked for users from those countries
So I came thinking to tell you guys that it is opened and lo and behold you guys are more up to date
I just signed up, user ID is Shadowfang. Are we all going to be Spain? hahah
I'm definitely choosing Spain but we still can be in the same guild even though you're from Portugal. Different countries make certain method of trade easier.
