Pirate Quests

I was just thinking, it'd be cool if there was a pirate quest system similar to the Letters of Marque that you can get...only you'd work your way up through the pirate organization (hey, they have leaders, they have to have followers) and instead of being granted land that makes money, you'd get like...other crews that give you part of their plunder (same function, just thematic name)

Then you could have like pirate ranks, etc...

you know..just kinda flesh out the pirate side of things

If something like this already exists/is in the works, ignore me. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
 
This is a nice idea. I'd vouch for this as a later possible add-on. Namely, developing a pirate nation as other regular nations, with the ability for the player to attain ranks and enjoy the outcome. This would be a major undertaking to implement. Maybe build 15 or something :) But i DO love the idea :)
 
GREAT idea, i went to the pirate lord the 1st time with the pre build 13 modpack and was upset that i couldnt do any work for them, it would be really cool to have this idea put into the new build!!

Technically it is not that hard indeed. But I was thinking quests rather than simple missions. This will need some thinkiage first, and then implementation. The governors now give you antipirate missions, raise your rank and that's about it. I think it should work differently with pirate lords. I can hardly imagine a pirate lord asking you to fend off a military patrol harassing the vicinity of the island...

Maybe bringing back the head of a certain traitor? could be anywhere in the archipelago. either in his ship or on land. of course this would be 10 times more difficult to code!
