| The "Escorting Ship" trick | Contributed by Indra was here...  (13183) on Sep 29, 2006. |
Sometimes when meet a Governor at a town or settlement, or at a monastery (almost always with settlements) the Governor or Monk may require you to escort ship for various purposes (sending immigrants, ultimatums, seeds, transporting a new governor, etc.)
This ships will almost always be intercepted by 3 opposing enemies (from other nations, or by pirates), prompting a "sea battle" on the main political sea map. This process maybe a little irritating especially if your not in the mood for another sea battle. There is a way to get around this:
Attack the ship you're escorting! Seriously, but when you enter the combat screen, sail away from the ship (flee - most likely the other ship will sail in the opposite direction as you). After you exit the combat screen, the escort ship will have sailed quite a long way from you. If you're close to the target destination, the ship you're escorting should arrive automatically and complete its mission.
Note: May not very well if target destination is still far away. |
