Challenge: Start Anew

So I gave this a go on my laptop today!

Frustrating hour of sailing around before dying
I&M is no where to be seen… I’ve been from the North Border to the South and it is not &quotNear Home waters&quot at all…
The loss of Deck and Aft gun ports on the starter ship is a MAJOR hinderance, I can now no longer take on a Pirate Pinnace or a crab or flock of bats without taking serious damage and considering I need nearly 3000 echoes to even consider getting a better ship I am now totally handicapped.

I’ve been playing Sunless Sea since it first started out in Backers only testers mode and I have NEVER been able to get an upgrade for my ship…
I die… and have to start all over again… only once, once have I had a town house and heirlooms to inherit and even that didn’t leave me with enough to actually get a bigger ship…

I still feel like the game is way, way too harsh! I mean it murders me so quickly… there needs to be a stepping stone upwards from Starter to medium to larger ships…
