Pirates & Politics! Pirates United! Frogs At War! 1610!

The game begins.

All pirates, send orders to UltimaAvalon.

All colonials, send orders to me. Deadline is at 3:35 PM EST, Jan 31.

Note to all colonials: Something which I forgot to put in the original rules is that you can only add 3 to your three strengths per turn. For example, you can buy 1 of each in army strength, army defense, and fortifications, or you can buy 2 of one and 1 of another, or 3 of one type.

Prices for the first purchases will be PM'd to everyone.

Good luck!

Shanba said: Join France, and gain blessings of the Pope.

I'm only 14, I haven't learned what "Pope" is in French.

Yes if you received the goods from sacking a ship, no if you received the goods when trading.

Damn, means it'll take two turns to get any kind of raiding ability. I don't fancy trying to fight anybody when all the pirates are equal and the colonies seem even better defended.

This pirate business seems to have more merchanting in it than pirating. Lets hope we can have some fun by turn 3.

come on people, patience... This is the first round, everyone has actions, and they interact with each other. We should expect some start up problems. And I don't know about you, but I got all the time to wait.

FYI - Any pirate offered a letter of marque to attack me may expect a better offer from me to attack whoever set the bounty on me in first place, just talk to me.
