This has nothing to do with the game. I belong to a pirate group, call us reenactors light. I dislike it when people twist history around to fit their perception of things. Can any one tell me the standing strength, ship numbers and types of the European based navies of France, England, and Spain at the end of the European wars in the early 1700's. The information would be much appreciated. A website where such information could be obtained would also be helpful.

You can research this information - I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated.

http://www.spanishsuccession.nl/english_navy.html This might be worth a look. It's got Dutch, Spanish and French navies as well. As to accuracy I couldn't comment, naval history is not my area.

What about good books about Napoleonic wars?
I know we had a thread awhile back was it archived?
