Maelstrom is a drowning world. Oceans have risen until only what were once the highest peaks remain above water.
Habitable land is incredibly precious to the feuding races, and massive bounties are paid to captains able to protect a territory from rival vessels that seek to plunder their claim.
And while warring kingdoms take turns delivering souls to the Abyss over the smallest specks of land, the depths hold other perils - massive, violent monsters lurk and hunt in what are known as ‘Dead Waters’.
Maelstrom is a world on the brink, yet there are still a few souls that resist the tidal force threatening to extinguish what remains…

Maelstrom is a third-person action strategy game with fast-paced, tactical, ship-vs-ship combat, customization, progression and a focus on multiplayer.
Players command Orc, Dwarf or Human warships, sailing the turbulent Abyssal Ocean and play online, last-ship-sailing multiplayer matches, solo or with friends. Gameplay revolves around easy-to-learn mechanics and arcade-style combat instead of simulation heavy realism and an emphasis on action and moment to moment choices…
Maelstrom is being created by veteran game developers from Warhammer: Dawn of War I & II, Company of Heroes, League of Legends, Overwatch and many more...
Maelstrom is currently being developed for Windows on PC, with plans for Mac and Linux support in the future.

The goal is simple: Loot as much gold as possible while outwitting and outgunning all others to be the last ship sailing.
Be ruthless! Sink other players ships, take their loot and collect their bounty!
Be greedy! Maps are littered with floating treasure chests and ships filled with gold.
Be cunning! As the match progresses hungry sea monsters become more aggressive and encroach the safe waters ships can sail in. Ships sailing in 'Dead Waters' for too long end up as monster chow!
At the end of a match players receive loot in the form of gold for upgrades and new crewmates based on how well they fought and survived.

BLISTERING BROADSIDES!
Cannons are the heart of combat in Maelstrom. Cannonballs are physics controlled, with a significant firing arc and hang time, meaning prediction and good aim are necessary to deal damage effectively. On the receiving end, players with good reactions and anticipation coupled with a nimble ship can dodge incoming fire.

BOARDING
Enemy ships can be grappled and boarded, holding both ships in place while crews fight it out. Grapples will be cut eventually, so boarding actions only last a short time. If one crew manages to kill all of the opposing crew, they will set fire to the enemy ship, sending it to the depths!
RAMMING
Players can always use the most basic of tactics and ram their opponent. The faster the ship is moving the more devastating the collision on impact! Orc ships are designed and built to use this tactic.

ARMOR AND POSITIONAL DAMAGE
Each ship has armor on all four sides. The armor sections serve as additional defense toward damage to that side and must be destroyed before the ship's hull can be damaged. Maneuvering to keep armor between you and your enemy is vital to staying afloat - and seeking the enemy's damaged sides will make you much more lethal in combat!
AMMO TYPES
Every cannon has access to three kinds of ammunition and can swap during combat to suit the situation. Ammo is unlimited.
Iron shot blasts chunks out of ship armor and hull.
Chain shot is used to shred enemy sails and cripple a ships speed.
Grapeshot slaughters enemy crew and makes ships easier to board.
LURKING THE DEEP
Like the ocean they reside in, sea monsters are titanic forces of nature. They love to snack on players and some of them can devour a ship whole. Like this pygmy Murkwater Thrasher.

Each ship in Maelstrom is a character with a colorful history and unique weaponry as well as strengths and weaknesses such as speed, firepower, crew, and toughness. There are many unique ships available for players to unlock and explore.
ASHBORNE, HUMAN FRIGATE
Ashborne has incredibly punishing broadsides and wields spell-infused incendiary ammo, unique to her, which ignites enemy ships!
http://cdn.akamai.steamstatic.com/steam/apps/764050/extras/Ashborne.jpg?t=1521708239
HUMANS
The well designed ships of mankind's Phoenix Empire are the fastest afloat. Each ship is armed with a large number of the most modern cannons available, giving them unmatched range and broadside firepower.
great speed
powerful broadsides
great range
ORCS
The orcs' shark-driven ships are incredibly maneuverable, and have a large number of forward-facing cannons making them deadly on the pursuit. The orcs themselves are ferocious fighters, unmatched in combat during boarding actions.
lethal boarding
great ramming
formidable agility
DWARVES
Dwarves disdain brittle wood and flimsy sail, instead forging steel armored steamships. Dwarven ships can withstand far more punishment than the ships of other races and are armed with massive giant cannons on all sides. Though not the most nimble, all Dwarf ships can switch gears and sail in reverse.
tough armor
omnidirectional cannons
ships can reverse
