In history, many people have sailed into the ocean to explore, allowing civilizations to communicate with each other and facilitating economic trade through which goods could be exchanged. Below is an introduction to the chain shot cannon in the Age of Sail. In the game, besides relatively peaceful trade, there are also combat settings. For example, players may encounter pirates at sea, and at such times, they must use some cannons to avoid these pirates, so as to continue sailing on the sea.

The game features several different types of cannons. First, there are the standard cannons, smoke cannons, and flame cannons. Additionally, the game includes double-barreled cannons, chain shot cannons, and grape shot cannons. Each type of cannon has a different effect. If you attack using a standard cannon, after hitting the opponent, their ship will generally shake, giving the sailors on board a chance to fall into the water. This makes the standard cannon very suitable for various situations. The smoke cannon is different from the standard one; instead of causing damage upon hitting the target, it creates a smoke cover, which reduces the hit rate of the opponent's cannons. Players can use this in combination with other cannons.

There are also flame cannons, which, when hitting the target, cause a fire. Double-barreled cannons have a higher chance of causing the ship to leak upon hitting. Chain shot cannons mainly target the sails of the ship. Once the sail is damaged, it can lead to the sinking of the ship. Moreover, once this equipment is destroyed, the player will have to replace the sail. Although not very powerful, it is quite suitable for causing disruption. Grape shot cannons, when hitting the target, put the ship in a state of chaos and can kill crew members, making them very suitable for use before initiating an attack. You can also first use a smoke cannon to obscure the opponent's vision, then change your position to launch an attack.

If you want to slow down the opponent or launch a surprise attack, you can use the chain shot cannon. Once the sail is damaged, whether moving or changing direction, it becomes more difficult. After attacking the sail, the durability of the ship decreases, and once the durability reaches a certain limit, the entire ship will sink. To use the chain shot cannon effectively, you need to gather a team and have all ships attack with chain shot cannons.
In the game, you can first attack the enemy ship with a grape shot cannon, giving yourself an advantage and disrupting the enemy's attack strategy. Then, use a smoke cannon to obstruct the enemy's view, causing them to miss their shots. At this point, you can use the chain shot cannon to attack the enemy's sail, and after slowing them down, quickly escape. Alternatively, you can choose to attack the enemy's ship with a flame cannon, and after the attack, by maintaining distance from the enemy, prevent them from hitting you.

Above is the introduction to the chain shot cannon in the Age of Sail. There are many cannons to choose from in the game. It is recommended that players, during battles, select the appropriate cannon based on different situations to maximize the effectiveness of these cannons. The chain shot cannon can serve as a support weapon, but for more effective attacks, cannons like the flame cannon or grape shot cannon should be chosen.
