Also, you should visit the missionaries. They've give you info on lost family members (or, actually, info on the people who have info on your lost family members).

You get lost city maps either by dancing successfully with beautiful daughters (successful means that you get the tip at the end, not the regular kiss) OR by finding a missing family member - they also hold pieces of the lost city maps on their person for some strange reason...

Yeah,

To get the full map to a lost city you have to rescue morre than on governer's daughter from Mendoza. Lost cities quests tend to be very long. You'll go all over the crribean just to find him <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/keith.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="keith.gif" />

Like in the "north of Vera Cruz" maps without a coastline. It can mean practically the whole of Mexico and southern USA.

The treasures/cities are always close to coastal landmarks (the stones in water) even if they do not appear on the treasure map itself. Just sail along the coast from coastal landmark to the next, land your crew to look around and if the landmarks don't match with your treasure map, return to your ship and sail to the next coastal landmark.

I retied in that particular game, with 104 points, an attractive French daughter (as always), all pirates caught, all family rescued and Montalban defeated. That done, I don´t see much sense going on and on and going slower and slower in fights. The only nation to still give me ranks would have been Spain, but I´m a bit reluctant to serve one nation exclusively, it goes against my business sense (if I wage war, hen only on those nations which are at war with at least two others, to double the profits). And I don´t much like running through the wilderness to search cities or treasures. That´s supposed to be done on the side, not as the main thing.
