How do you make enemy surrender without close fight/chase? I know you need to shoot their sails/crew, but they most of the time just run away till the end of time. I'm interested in improving chances of that event when I don't need to chase and abordage.

From my observations they sometimes surrender when they have no sails and they sometimes surrender when I have many ships and I'm able to overrun them to that point when they have no direction to run away.

Second option is tricky and not always works, so I wan't to know when they will just surrender without circling them.
Do you have some observations on that topic?

When they surrender it's good for me, as I keep their crew and hull is full health... All the cool stuff. I'm ussualy able to hunt treasure fleet before first month passes by quickly jumping from one ship better one, but now I started my roleplay campaign and I wan't to make them surrender so I just take their load and let them go.

Combat in PR1 is rather easy, just try to keep them behind you all the time and move from side to side to shoot with chain balls. Once they have no sails you can do whatever you want. There are some tricky battles like barque vs frigate and frigate vs galleon when enemy is quicker, but you can still pull it off using this technique if you shoot their sails quickly enough.

First time I played I wanted to do the same, but those damn pirates always force you to take fight sooner or later. I remember in my first game I had no guns on ship, because I thought they are just dead weight haha

Yeah pirates never surrender, and attacking pirates never run away, but now I am often playing as pirate/corsair so I have diffrent dilemas
