Might be able to sail away, but I reckon 3 hours of shore leave featuring wenches and rum will fix my woes.

I got out of battle, and Now i have a full sand bad in 360 degrees. Now I have to wait 3 hours...

Pagan Pete likes this +3!

Pyrates are free men! They do not want a ruling clan. it goes against everything we ever stood for. Also, -3 on the suggestion. too many problems would arise by so complex a change.

Pagan Pete stands best to the heart, long stem Dutch pipe in one hand, and mug in the other. The light of the fire behind casts playful shadows on the back wall as Pagan Pete behind to tell his tale... "So there we were, I was captaining my Cerberus, the Merrow, when we spy a US Renomee where it shouldn't be. Now, we vein honest traders, we sails up to inquire wot if they need any help, see? Now we weren't the only concerned citizens, two other captains also sailed up to see wot the feller wonted, you know, being honest citizens. Loe and behold the US Renomee set upon us innocent traders! And wits more, she be joined by two Trincomalies! 'Hell's bells!' I cried. 'We are beset upon by naval forces! They must be misinterperetin our curiosity as hostile action! Let us away, and sharpish!' I said, I did. We turned downwind wot to escape these here hostile aggressors, and managed to open a good lead. But before I could warn the other ships about this treacherous trap we found ourselves in, it were too late. Their courses didn't lead to their escape, may the good lord bless their souls. And that lads, be the story bout how I were mistaken for a pirate! Can ye believe that?

Here be a picter fer ye! http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/495763483666375603/3C76C95C0835816AB6571B114419ACA59B0BA236/ Bahahahahahaaha!

Arrrr... So I decided to leave the poor, poor Americans alone fer a bit. So I sailed south and picked on the British! HEre be a selfie of me ship The Banshee in Port Royal Harbor! I had seven men try to stop me from gettin in, to no avail. I had three men try and stop me from gettin out again, to no avail! After that I stole a nice fat Trade Snow from Three Legged Pete, And then escaped three more men wot wanted to hang ole Pagan Pete fer that offense! To no avail... I cant post the picture, so here be the link! =oD http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/495763483666375603/3C76C95C0835816AB6571B114419ACA59B0BA236/

Pagan Pete REALLY likes this! +3! but... Shouldnt it be called "Land ho!"?

The accords have been updates with Article IX: prohibiting attacks on other pyrates, unless they be known pyrtate murdering traitorous filth!

Absolutly beautiful workmanship on tht there Guttenburg printin press contraption! The read is quite fun too. I espcialy likes that part wot is about me! YARRR!

My Niagara capsized just because i read this topic!!!

You should not be able to teleport with cargo. Teleport is important when you get lost, or need to travel a large existence… again. However, teleporting with cargo eliminates ANY risk involved in moving cargo. No risk helps drive the current resource crisis.

So there I wow, innocently stealing a Trade Brig of the US coast, when two midshipmen in cutters come along and ruin me fun. "let's teach them a lesson in fear, lads!" I says to the crew. I sail straight at them and we open fire on the first one with chain shot, The second has yet to hoist his sails. After two more volleys of chain i prepare to grape. The second ship STILL has yet to hoist his sails! I says; "Avast! His crew has mutinied! They be refusing to fight! This be too easy!" So I grape the 1st cutter with Midshipman Rosy, and he pulls me in fer boardin' Which be perfect because thats wot I was hoping to do! SWAT! He's capitulated in two rounds. "You're next!" i holler to the other ship, which promptly strikes its colors. (Now, I know they be new, but I can't let the loss of a trader go unanswered.)

Yarrr! Last nights raid in the US East coast netted me 12 ships, 1 player surrendered to me, 1 frigate refused to fight me, and 80,000 in profit! Free Rum today at Pagan Petes Pyrate Parlor! [_]p [_]P [_]P [_]p [_]P

Ended up in the water today, when me basic snow (just for fun) was tipped over by a frigate. It was all fun though, me brothers were there to fish me out, and i got my yearly bath done at the same time! Then they captured the frigate before it sank. [_]P Yarrr!

So there I were haven a nice pleasure cruise….. through eel infested waters… When I came across a battle betwixt the USA and Great Britain. I put up me English flag and sail closer to investigate. It were two AI brits vs a 2nd Lt. Gunnar Andersen USN. He were sailing a privateer, as were I. I sent him some chain shot to know I were here! He continued to go after the naples AI trader!!! Interesting… He didn't really get the picture till he were at 80% sails. Then he did a patch job, and ran outta battle. And then he kept running, and running, and running. I tried to persuade him to hang me, but he didn't seem to be interested in taking on Pagan Pete's crew and the Banshee, despite the even odds... "Oi Yankee… I thought 'these colors don't run?'" I hollered. He didn't turn. So I reckon the Admiralty will likely end his career, wot for not hanging olde Pagan Pete when he had the chance!

Update to the main post (1st) includes officer updates, server, and additional details in fine print. Enjoy.

Pagan Pete sips tea from his rum mug, leaning against the counter with silent smugness. He hears false things and knows who said them, a slight grin cracks his face when he hears idle boasting. He knows who he's fought, who he's humiliated in battle, and how many epic escapes he's had from justice's noose. Calmly and with grim certainty, he contemplates another raid up and down the shores of the East Coast. Alas he knows many US players will avoiding taking trade ships for the time being. Hence, the profits will be low. Nay best to hit ships elsewhere. "Willy, Lets go. Idle talk bored me so." The ginger cabin boy collects the grim captain's things and follows him out of the tavern...

Well, Still better than the Furious series…

If ye be looking to get rid of the boy, I can always find space for a powder monkey.

I notice yer poll doesn't have "Pyrates should be able to both capture and raid ports." Therefore, since the poll be not representing all options, I can't partake.

Pagan Pete's Adventures on the US Coastline So I decided wot to pull a Blackbeard and assail the US coast in The Banshee. I sail across and the very first thing we se is a battle between a French and US ship. "Mr. Margeson Haave we got an American flag?" "Aye sir! Shall I break it out?" He answers with an evil grin. "Indeed!" We enter the fight flying the Stars n Stripes and signal the US ship "Kill or Capture" The US captain yelled "Your choice! Need a brig?" "Aye!" I answer, knowing the ruse has worked… "Indeed I do!" We proceed to assail the Frenchman and two other US ships join to aid the fight. My crew of cutthroats boards her when we pull along side. Outnumbered 110 to 65, we are eager to take the prize before our secret is discovered! we know the other three ships will aid us with grape shot, and so we are confident! We seize the brig and sail off with it. "Hey! Bloody pyrates!" One of the captains is heard cursing… It were too late… Bwhahahahah!
