One of the most important features in FoA is that you can not only play with the soldiers on the ground but also control one of the available ships on the sea bombarding from afar and help your team win.
Be prepared for naval combat when you encounter an enemy ship, maneuvering and timing your cannon shots is crucial to sinking the enemy, there are three different sailing speeds and three different aiming settings for the ship’s cannons that you can switch by pressing W and S or Q and E respectively.
Later on in development we are planning on introducing naval combat only maps, in the meantime enjoy the breeze of the ocean and sail on.
