That's what Sock said here: https://forum.overlordcomic.com/showthread.php?tid=3
Quote:We do not have:
- A Navy We have freight boats that are manned by humans that visit us twice a month. That's the extent of our interaction with the outside world and the ocean, aside from fishing.
I am very confused now...
Obviously there are boats that act WITHIN the islands, otherwise people wouldn't have a means of getting from island to island and moving cargo from island to island. Many of these are controlled by the Overlord. Socks' posting signature also reads "I just keep the forums up to date and free from spam, and have no authority regarding the roleplay universe" which means she isn't necessary in the know regarding every little detail. In this case she was speaking on what she knew when we discussed pushing people away from playing active members of the navy because it would put them out of the circle of the main RP.
Sock's mention of 'Navy' meant boats that left the area of the islands where they would have interaction with the outside world, not that there was no Navy whatsoever. Hence her saying "That's the extent of our interaction with the outside world and the ocean, aside from fishing." It's just that since there's no battleships and the 'Navy' consists of interisland ferries and cargo ships they're nothing to speak of. It is not a 'Navy' in the manner that most people think of, hence it isn't of any consequence and we want to avoid people wanting to play Special Agent Super Soldier Underwater Sayan Seals or something when we need other roles.
Apologies for the confusion.
