cohRock Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 The ferry allowing travel between Talos Island, Striga Island, and Independence Port is identified on the maps as "Smuggler's Ship". Vaguely that has bothered me since coming to Homecoming over a year ago. Today it occurred to me possibly why. On Live, was this vessel not referred to simply as "tugboat"? It's quite possible my remembery is malfunctional again, but I'd like to find out for sure. -- Rock
Ironblade Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) Seems like both the boat to Striga and the boat to Peregrine Island were called 'Ferry". Here's a map from 2010 which show both marked with an F for Ferry. Edit: A response with corroborating evidence in just 22 minutes! Edited May 19, 2021 by Ironblade 1 Originally on Infinity. I have Ironblade on every shard. - My only AE arc: The Origin of Mark IV (ID 48002) Link to the story of Toggle Man, since I keep having to track down my original post.
cohRock Posted May 19, 2021 Author Posted May 19, 2021 Thank you @Ironblade You've got strong research-fu! At least I was right about it not being called a Smuggler's Ship, so the vague feeling of "different" was justified. -- Rock
City Council Number Six Posted May 19, 2021 City Council Posted May 19, 2021 It was definitely called that on the live servers:https://archive.paragonwiki.com/wiki/Ferry#Smuggler.27s_Ship The wiki entry was revised in early 2011 to add the Smuggler's Ship section but I don't know if it was just cleanup in the article or if it's something Paragon changed at some point. 1
Apparition Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 IIRC, I believe it was renamed to Smuggler's Ship when Going Rogue launched or shortly after, in late 2010. 1

If you're a Vigilante or a Rogue, the ship can take you to the Rogue Isles in addition to Striga/Talos/IP. 3 Global Handle: @Gibs A guy with unpopular opinions.
