Without doubt these guys are the only real pirates in the game imho. 

Thanks for the help vs UWS.

The original and the best bar none. 👏

I was not part of those raids that sank so many India's down south but it proves how few it can take to have a lot of fun and make a great difference in the game.

Thanks for the big up.

We enjoy mixing it up with the big boys in our small ships.

Hopefully the US can grow again and that's better for all of us and the game. 😁

Our New YouTube channel has been launched called Clan Black.

Light hearted and not to serious.....we aim to promote Naval Action as best as we can.

You can see how BLACK likes to hunt the world over....and how humour is very much evident in what we do.

If you feature in any of our videos, thanks and GG.

You guys recruit new thugs to boost ya ranks?

We don't actively recruit like other clans, however we do invite some pirates to sail with us for a while to see if we all 'fit'.

Have ye read the articles?

" You guys recruiting? "

 

As in most clans right now. we have a few actives and the rest appear to be waiting on the big wipe and release.

We do not actively recruit but as Blackbeard posted some time ago we have you sail with us for a week or two. 

Read the articles at the top of this forum. you must agree to abide by them to join the clan.

If we feel you fit in with the members and members agree as this is not a dictatorship, you may get an invite.

We are always keeping an eye out for potential members but having had a fairly large clan in the past, we prefer a smaller clan with quality people and fewer politics.

Look for me, Nick the Cursed, Windy,  Black Harry, Emrys or Benedicte and ask to join us for a sail or two.

If you catch him you might even see Pagan Pete online. He has been popping in recently for short sails.

Liq has started a post on clans after the release.  We will be on the seas after the release and sailing the high seas.  I look forward to seeing old and new players on board after the release to fill up the servers once more.

I am very happy to announce that after a long absence, Bluetooth is back online and will be sailing again.  We have a good group of pvpers going and the clan leader board shows it all.

We are always on the look out for a new member or two even though we do not spam Global and nation with ads...   If you happen to be sailing with us or in a fight with one of us, express your interest in joining and we will talk it over as a group and let you know.

BLACK (not BL4CK) will continue to be a scourge for other nations on the seas for a long time to come!!!

Ran into Ygnn's (BLACK) prince yesterday. Lost connection during the fight and although it was only a t-brig, he stopped the action, till I had restarted. Damn fine move! 👍

Good to hear as Ygnn is a recent addition to the clan. A few more like him would be great for the clan.

Thanks for the post,

BLACK is alive and well. 
This is a recount of a recent hunt. 
Enjoy!

perhaps Nick will post the photo from inside the harbour at Fort Royal


BLACK on the hunt with Nick the cursed, Smock le Terrible and Ferrus Pugnum

Under the cover of night fall, the pirate raiders slipped into Fort Royals harbour looking or prey.
They dropped sails and hid themselves deep inside away from the docks of the capital city.
Patiently waiting and aware that discovery could mean a quick death from the defensive forts and towers
 located at the entrance to the harbour, the pirates nerves were on edge.Soon the patience was rewarded. Still in the early dawn,
 a french Indiaman laden with cargo slipped away from the docks and headed out into open water.
Making sure the enemy ship cleared the fortifications and was well away into the open water the pirates raised sails, 
slipped out of the harbour and closed in behind the Indiaman that was unaware of the danger behind.
When the time was right the 2 pirate Snows and a Prince de Neufchatel attacked.

The crew of the Indiaman, now alerted, loaded cannons and prepared for battle.
The enemy ship turned around attempting to use the fort as cover in an attempt to regain the harbour and protection of Fort Royal. 
The Pirates closed in and in a short but brutal battle, destroyed the hull of the Indiaman while under fire from the fort and 
sank the ship before it reached safe harbour.  After looting the french ship the pirates made to escape the enemy capital waters.


Sails up and moving to open waters the french angered at the loss of a ship so close to home gave chase.

The pirates repaired ships and prepared for a new fight. 
A french Pandora attacked one of the pirates and the other two joined in the fight.
The pirates converged on the ship and a long fight ensued. 
The Pandora was from the same group as the trader and was determined to sink the pirates.
The owner of the Indiaman joined the battle in a Redoubtable, a very large formidable ship.  
The pirates were now severely outgunned but fought on. The Pandora was crippled, sails shot to hell and hull leaking. 
One snow broke off and chased the Redoubtable.  
Engaging the large ship was no easy task but the snow cracked open the hull and started killing crew.

The Pandora finally sank before the Redoubtable could come to help. Once the smaller ship was down the 3 pirates, 
like sharks circles and attacked the Redoubtable while avoiding its crippling broadsides that could sink them easily.
In time, after a very long fight and several repairs the pirates wore the big ship down. 
With less than a quarter of its crew left and masts down the big ship was barely moving on the water but was not ready to sink. 
The Redoubtable boarded one of the snows that got too close and captured it but it was too little too late. 
The pirates resolved to finish her off and started boarding actions. 
It was a long tough fight but in the end the Redoubtable was captured and the snow recovered.

No pirate ships sank this day.

The french had lost 3 good ships and the pirates sailed home to port with loot, good stories to tell and ale to drink.

Another fine hunting trip under the BLACK!!

We found a lone Victory sailing and attacked it.  It had some super turning ability with less than 70% sails and turned faster than our smaller more agile ships at times. No matter what buff or extra ability he was using it was to no avail. Davey Jones has a new dinner guest!!

Hail there Cpt's of the Black. if you are still around , My i get an invite once more.

 

Emerald Jack and Scarper Jacques, please send me mail or pm in game or to Nick the Cursed.  If you look on the clan pvp board you will see we are very much still around, small as we are.  We sail the seas hunting or doing ai fleets for booty as well.  Everyone chooses the path and kind of pirate they want to be and as long as they abide by the articles that is fine. See you soon on the seas
