    Solved Ransoming captains.

    Ah, well.. I'm not entirely sure that even if I bought one of those crazy overpriced licenses the spanish guards would be too fooled. "Okay, he's flying the flag of spain, he's got the papers and.. Hey, that's a dozen of our captains from ships that he recently sunk!" Propably wouldn't fly...

    Solved Ransoming captains.

    Ahoy mateys. After the governor of Barbados decided to pay me 14k a pop for the heads of two spaniards that thought my heavy galleon would make easy prey, i've decided to hang up my trading gloves for a moment and picked up the Constitution I grabbed off some Gentlemen of Luck earlier. Now the...

    Solved So, knocking out sails and masts.

    's all quite technical to me. More than my foolish head can grasp. But now that I think about it I wanted to ask. Do masts count as 'hull' rather than sails? Would explain why round shot is advocated by some instead of chain to rip the things down.

    Need Help Recruiting fighter officers

    Maybe we should team up. I'll fool the navigators so they think you're outta town, and you send any fighters to me? I did eventually find one with a neutral reputation.. Aaand promptly had Engine.Exe crash before I had the mind to save. After some creative swearing I went back to running...

    Need Help Recruiting fighter officers

    I seem to be coming here a lot to ask help of late, don't I? Anyhow. Today's problem is that I can't for the life of me find almost any fighter officers, and the one in a dozen that is one has a reputation of shark or bloody assassin or the like (Not good for a relatively nice cap'n). Is there...

    Solved So, knocking out sails and masts.

    Trying to get a bit of a consensus on this matter. The in-game tooltip states that chain shot would obviously be best for the job, doing 1.00 damage to sails. But I hear some people suggest manually aimed cannonballs, despite their pitiful 0.10 damage to sails, according to the tooltip. So let's...

    Solved Merchant winds quest

    I haven't tried it myself, but i'd see two options. Either you buy some ale, hit a beach on Curacao and try to sneak into Willemstad, wait somewhere until the shop opens and have a word with the man about that beer, then sprint out of town like all hell's on your heels. Or try and see if the...

    Got a message about money I put in the bank being lost..

    Aha! That explains it, though i'd still like to extract payment from that fool moneylender for not hiding my cash when the spanish, I presume, came knocking.. Well, i'm playing as french and indeed do have several small caches of gold across the Caribbean, a bit here and there for a rainy day...

    Got a message about money I put in the bank being lost..

    Ahoy, folks. I'm a bit green here, though i've read a bit through the forums. As the title suggests, I had some money (20k) set away for a rainy day with the lender in Marigot, San Martin. I left it there to grow interest since I didn't need it, but eventually got a message saying it'd been...
