		Sails are made of Dacron (long-strand Polyester fiber), Nylon, or Kevlar, which are all synthetics, and whose fate will be similar to that of epoxy resin.
		Sails can be made of Dacron for as long as it is available, but of a shape that can be made from the stretchier and weaker flax canvas, such as the Junk rig.
		Sails need not cost thousands of dollars: for making short trips in decent weather, a Junk sail can be rigged using lumberyard supplies and construction tarp.

	Game Over Online Magazine - Age of Sail 2
		Age of Sail 2, created by Russian developer Akella, is the sequel to -- surprise, surprise -- Age of Sail, which was released at the end of 1996.
		Age of Sail 2, meanwhile, has a nice 3D graphics engine that is able to bring several ship types and locations to life.
		But from my perspective, Age of Sail 2 is a little too simplistic when few ships are involved, and it becomes unmanageable when lots of ships are involved.

	Sharky Games - '+$ArtG+' - '+$ArtC+' - '+$ArtN+' (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The classic era of the fighting sail ships has been recreated numerous times for the PC but most of the resulting simulations truly deserve to be deep-sixed into oblivion.
		One title that did manage to stand out was Talonsoft's 1996 release Age of Sail, which ironically came out at about the same time as Wooden Ships and Iron Men and thus is usually either confused with that game or forgotten completely as the genre was often compared to a sinking fleet.
		Now after nearly four years, the sequel, Age of Sail II, is about to take to the high seas in what could arguably be seen as the best naval simulation covering the era from the American Revolution through the end of the Napoleonic Wars.

		The ship sailing in the middle is the 44 gun frigate USS Constitution (GHQ Stock #341) painted to match the current paint scheme as the ship appears in Boston.
		The sails that come with GHQ ships are crisp and nicely detailed but you only have one sail set to choose from.
		GHQ would benefit by offering a full sail set or a combo of sails to be sold separately for their line of ships.

		It's real time, but in battles between sailing ships real time is probably plenty slow, which is why you can use time compressions up to 32x.
		Age of Sail II is real-time as well, so the interface and controls really need to be sharp for players to manage a fleet of ships.

		Age of Sail II is the most recent title in this genre and radically departs from its direct overhead view namesake of years ago.
		Sailing ship combat could occur on a small scale, between two frigates for example, or it could involve two or more massive fleets, which could total almost a hundred combatant ships.
		Age of Sail II also runs in a continuous-time mode, with the capability of changing the compression speed to compensate for uneventful or high-activity periods of the battle.

	Age of Sail II (PC) Reviews. PC Games Reviews by CNET.
		Age of Sail II does not offer a randomly generated campaign (a prominent feature in the original Age of Sail), but the scripted campaigns included with the game are rather good for the most part.
		A number of the scenarios in Age of Sail II include fortresses of varying strength, which is great for the sake of variety.
		Instead, in Age of Sail II you have to scramble into position as soon as a scenario begins--and the battles often start with the enemy already in firing range, which can be frustrating.

		In Age of Sail, it is usually better to be upwind from an opponent than downwind.
		Trimming sails (back sailing), represented in the game by the incremental speed setting bar, is an important way of slowing ship speed to allow the most optimal positioning.
		In Age of Sail carronades are the most devastating at under 200 yards and suffer declining effectiveness to 400 yards.

	The new age of sail - mech-tech - 26 February 2005 - New Scientist Tech
		They needed a large crew to operate the rigging, the sails themselves had to be replaced and repaired regularly, the canvas had to be stored somewhere on board, which reduced the space for cargo, and the variability of the winds made schedules unreliable.
		On top of that, the economics of sail were steadily undermined in the 20th century by the rising cost of labour and a decline in the real price of oil.
		This is partly because it is tethered to a rail close to the vessel's centre of gravity, and partly because the horizontal tug of the kite is counterbalanced by the vertical pull it generates, which tends to hold the vessel upright.

		Age of Sail II simulates naval warfare from 1775 to 1820 with a real-time 3-D sailing and combat model.
		Sailing characteristics are belevable, and while it's clearly no Sid Meier brainchild, the interface is well designed and easy to use, and the game has a good balance of ease of play and complexity to keep interest up.
		Since the sailing combat genre has few games to choose from, AOS2 is better than nothing, but is not "3 AM addictive", where I start playing at 9PM and the next think I know it's 3AM...

		Not all of us boast the patience to gruelingly recreate a famous sea battle in our spare time, but for those who would picture this as their ideal weekend, Talonsoft and Akella appear to have come to the party with Age of Sail 2.
		As can be expected Age of Sail 2builds on the fairly solid base created by its prequel, Age of Sail, as a real-time, full 3D naval warfare simulation.
		This is probably most noticeable from the shear amount of ships and battles that Age of Sail 2 will allow players to indulge in.
