One down, one more to go. The game starts with this exact battle, though.

Battling against the fort is thrice as harder, since there are at least three cannons mounted on top of each. Plus it barely ever misses.

Sometimes, enemy ships will try to escape, and you'll have to use a special wind ability to get closer.

You can either attack or block enemy attacks with sword and a dagger.

When in walking-mode, you cannot go over water, not even on shallow bits.

Some small forts may be out of your ship's reach, but they cannot turn their turret for 360 degrees, so there should be some safe zones at close distance, also.

You can zoom and rotate map in every mode, and make it close up or to look at top-down.

Somewhere over the frozen lands, these towers are shooting gas grenades, as well.

When on land, you can enjoy winter holidays, there's even Jack Frost somewhere around.

Nope, this is nowhere near hell, but the heat's the same, though.

When in ship-mode, you can play in first-person perspective, gives you better reality mode, and close-ups.

This is a 3rd-person perspective, only zoomed in. Detail level is so great you can even see your crew onboard.
