    Where can I find "Black Reef"?

    There is one landmark for North of the Florida Keys or South of St. Augustine that is in an inland lake. It is an actual Florida lake (Lake Okeechobee). The landmark is hard to see from the coast. It is visable if you are zoomed all the way out and you are right up against the coast, but you...

    Gold Divvy off by a factor of 10...

    Some of your cut of the money gets banked away. That is what shows up on you character page as wealth. Then the remainder of your cut is your starting money for the next journey.

    First time, some questions!

    To get rid of the bounty, you can: 1)Wait a few months, and don't attack any Spanish cities or ships, and it will go away. 2)Attack pirate boats, indian boats, and the enemies of the Spanish, and it will go away. 3) Go to a Jesuit Mission and talk to the abbot. He will probably offer to...

    No Nation + Piracy + 1600 Era = Easy Game? nah dont think so

    Pirate raiders take money away from the town. Indians attack the population and run the people away. Towns will often become more wealthy after an indian attack. The bartender will tell you that an indian attack will get rid of some of the `riff-raff`. Both kinds of attacks can reduce the...

    Found a Bug/Cheat

    It only really matters if the crew is going to get a real low per man cut. It doesn't effect your money at all. You get a set percentage of the pot. For example, if you are playing on adventurer, your share of the pot is 20%. If the total plunder is 100,000, and you have 1000 men, you get...

    Are Site owners/Beta testers still in touch with the Dev's?

    It's not an ATI only issue. More people with ATI cards are reporting the problem, but it happens with GeForce, too. I have a GeF 4 Ti 4200 card, and I have the same problem. The intro videos do nothing but flash, but the game runs smooth and everything else looks great after that. I can turn...

    I'm whooping on the Spanish but they are ignoring me?!

    You can always attack from land. You can fire at the city's fort by pushing the space bar when you are just outside of the city. Do this enough times, and when you sail in, you will get the option to attack.

    Pirate Raiders & Pirate Privateers

    The same thing works for the indians, but it can can work out even better if you keep up with the indians and follow them until they are attacked. Anytime you get help from pirates or indians, the game sends out a couple of ships to intercept them. I have just recently started doing this, so...

    Useless things?

    I've never been marooned either, but I think you also get marooned if you loose a ship battle and you only have one ship in your fleet. If you have more than one, one of your other ships will pick you up.

    Where you get your Men ?

    You get more men if you: 1)Have a higher reputation. 2)Have a high rank in the nation that controlls the city. 3)Beat the guard captain who is bothering the bar maid before asking the men to join. And, there may be others.

    any other way to make crew happy?

    Right now the only way is to make alot more gold in a hurry. I have been thinking about this, and I think there should be some measures that can give a short term boost to moral. If this were real life, and the men were getting restless, but you had just gotten the last piece of the map to...

    Playing the Game

    There seems to be a statute of limitations on your actions. You can attack the interests of one nation very hard, and then if you have left them alone for awhile, they will forget about it. I had a recent game in which the bounty placed on me had risen to 34,000 gold. I spent a few months...

    Help with Pirates

    Yeah, it shocked me the first time it made me retire, after I had read in the book that it wasn't supposed to. Either the book is wrong, or else they meant you could continue as long as you don't devide the plunder, in which case they should have stated that.

    Can't find ship

    The manual states that only governments use Royal Sloops(not entirely true). They mostly use them as Pirate Hunters. If you piss one off enough, they will send them after you. You can just bombard one of the larger cities, until they send one out, or you can attack several boats as they are...

    Ruby ring and diamond necklace

    It doesn't seem to matter as far as the relationship thing goes. I get 10 out of 10 even I give the ring instead of the necklace. It may make a difference in what she gives you or tells you next, though. I think having a diamond necklace adds to the special itmes total. I have decided to...

    I had a wild game!

    I posted this at CivFanatics and at AddictedToPirates, but I thought you guys who don't go to those forums might enjoy this story. I posted and edited the post as the game was going on. Here it is: I'm having a bad game. I have had 2 horrible maps. There was almost no way to find the things...
