Do you guys think Compasses would be a cool new sailing item?

Absolutely!

There's so much room for improvement in sea items. We have cannon rams, navigation charts and globes. A <insert name of common navigational tool that's blocked from the forums because it starts with a "naughty" word. even though it's in the game as a collectible> was in the works, as was a Spyglass.

I always thought you should have multiple slots for sea items. Cannon ram, Navigation Map (Chart or Globe), Navigation Tool (Spyglass, compass, etc), and maybe more. One of my many "dream changes" for TLOPO.

First of all Id like to say this weapon card you have put together looks great! I think the idea of having spears would be a cool fun weapon type to master. I kinda got bored of looting after I mastered all of my weapons so to see new weapons and weapon types would be really exciting!

Thanks! We are in need of new weapon types in the future to ensure gameplay remains fresh and appealing
 
I made this in the spirit of Friday the 13th and Muertos Moon. I left the weapon picture blank to let your pirate imaginations decide what this blade would look like! I also couldn't decide on Attack, you figure out what it would be.

Thanks! I use photoshop to create my weapon cards - it took a lot of experimenting to get it to look like this. I created a template from the ground-up while using the weapon cards provided in this thread. The fontsizes, text positions, as well as some other things aren't perfect/don't exactly match the real thing - but it was the best that I could do.

The same fonts, colors, and icons are used. I used the color dropper tool on a couple images of weapon cards to find out the color codes of the elements so I can use them in mine. The fontname is Bardi regular, and I use the "Strong" preset. The text underneath the weapon skills is also Bardi, but I duplicate the layers so it looks this dark. The small icons (eg: the circle that the icons are displayed inside as well as icons like critical strike) are found in the wiki, saved, then placed inside. To get the outlines on some special skills like critical strike, I use the stroke effect. Also, some things are italicized (eg: "Rank x ", "Requires level...", and the "+.." boosts)

To change the color of the weapon and add my own etchings, I used the color replacement tool as well as the dodge/burn/sponge tools.

So to sum it up, I just stared at weapon cards and messed around for a long long time until I was able to recreate them.
