Captain Skills - Navigation Last update 12th May 2001

 

Points in this skill are a reflection of your knowledge of the coast, stars and general sea cunning including reefs and currents. These let you find your way, stop you getting lost, and prevent you running aground on unknown shoals. Beinglost is not necessarily bad, bu tit does mean you don't know exactly where you are. Obviously, if you are folloing a coast, you will eventually hit a town or other shipping. Being lost is more a problem far at sea or when you are short on supplies and needing food to prevent a mutiny or worse.
