Aboard a Goldfish
N-Sunderland:
Actually, it's quite convenient to be there when you enter a battle. It lets you have quick access to the entire ship. I throw myself down to the hull every time we start getting shot. Works perfectly.
BdrLineAzn:
I got a fun idea. If two competent engineers are on the same Goldfish, and the captain lets them. Both engineers hang around the rooftop. But during a battle only one goes down and try to fix the whole ship, while the other just sits and watch. Once the Goldfish gets killed, the first engineer goes on the roof and the second tries to watch the ship as well. So it goes on and off with both engineers. We can have a small contest on who last the longest keeping it alive. (Also a fun way if two highly rank engineers are on, and one side is stacked, we can balance it out with this)

Now that's an idea that's going somewhere!

Let's see if I can add to that what you've learned.
Did you know that you can use the ropes near the helm to jump onto the roof? I go up there every time I engineer on a Goldfish.

I didn't know that but I use the balloon component to get up on the roof of the goldfish.

^^ This... Just flew with BdrLine tonight, and it was the first time I saw it.... You both get Salutes! :P

My thanks! I'm working on a Guide for the Spire currently, because I've got a little playtime with that as well, I've been Flying with Drogvaethor on his Flying Adventure since he started out with it, and he occasionally talked me into flying it as well. My captaining experience with it is nothing compared with the Goldfish though, so I can't say anything about the quality of that guide to be, but I'm sure the lads here will be eager to help me out! I definitely want to keep this updated, especially since it actually got some good reviews! I'll have to see how I can best go about this!

You sir, are my hero. All of lovely Styria shall forever be indebted to you for this noble deed. You could have done no greater service to Styria, than to let one of it's children take to the skies.

I totally forgot that, I had Drog jumping around up there once, but we never thought it'd be of much use! I'll apply for moderation of the guides section, so that I can edit this trick in here and keep the guide updated! A Salute and a mention to you in the guide, Mr. Sunderland Sir, as soon as I get to editing it!
