Agreed on the potential. I think we can give it a good Scottish flavor though. I found images of the fort as well as a map of the colony. The fort looks almost identical to the Scottish forts back in Scotland. Pretty cool. The town is laid out in a triangle with a wall around it and mainly has houses inside.

Its also a good spot and won’t be far…[Read more]

Our unfriendly site was not being nice to Vincent and he had to send me his reply via PM because he couldn’t post it here. No worries friends. We wont be here much longer.

Right, now I fully know that WordPress sucks – hard. So, since apparently I can’t post my response to your post in my Scottish Colony request, here it is – we despe…[Read more]

New Yo ho ho Small English Scout Frigate/ 6th rate

Well I can’t give you a good answer on that Maltacus.

If I had to describe in a visual way why – I would say it is because this game is like a bunch of slide rules cludged together.

If there was someway that we could freeze your level to say 15 and you would never progress beyond that – then I could quantify what you ask to some…[Read more]

Thanks for the heads up Captain Qbert! Appreciate the info.

I am a pack rat collector – so I will have to buy it anyway, but I am not in a hurry to do so after what you have reported. I will wait for a lull in the battle when I am not so busy.

Actually its Colonel Thomas Drummond you are talking about.

FYI the other character you were referring to – was one which my own youngest son (Stephen) actually asked me to create for him (that’s actually my son’s face on the character which creeps his mom out everytime she sees it LOL. He is not actually a real historical figure but based on…[Read more]

Vincent, We have a long priority list. Jeffry gets to stuff as fast as he can. Often a lot of tweaking can be done to mod options to tailor the game to your personal tastes. I’m sure he will take a look at some point.

So I wanted to address Dave’s question above because I just saw it.

On the armor – there are a LOT of characters that do…[Read more]

I’m not certain there is such a thing in this game LOL. However, if what you mean is that you want the most normal game possible where it is not overly easy, but not intentionally difficult either, I would choose Captain or Corsair. I myself usually play on Commodore because I like it a little bit harder. The reason I don’t like it higher than…[Read more]

Thanks for your solution Maltacus! Very much appreciated. No worries on where it came from Mate. Post whatever you want. I don’t care where it comes from as long as it helps people. Unlike others we can name, I don’t intentionally delete or bury posts giving valuable information to enthusiasts/people.

That’s really my primary problem with those…[Read more]

Thank you Schiavonna, Mot and Captain Qbert for your introductory posts and your interest in what we are doing here.

WELCOME TO THE REEF MATES!

Schiavonna has already provided a lot of good input/opinions and we always look forward to more.

Captain Qbert, Thanks for the additional input to Vincent’s excellent post. We will certainly take you…[Read more]

EDIT: I moved this over to the Introductions and Off-topic forum but I wanted it to have its own new status separately from the main thread. Still not getting the hang all of the clunky word press tools.

I have been to the show at Treasure Island in Las Vegas twice. The first time was years ago when they first opened the place. It was…[Read more]

Tulkas, it was a question I had myself a few years ago so I tested it out.

The answer is no. Once you reach 100 points – that’s all you get, so you can drop, sell, or stash the extra stuff into your ship’s chest. I always get rid of all of the extra unnecessary books and items once I get to 100 – unless its just really cool stuff I like, such as…[Read more]

WOW! Vincent WOW!,

I have thoroughly read your “novel” and I am impressed with both the dedication to get the ideas out there and several that we had not thought about before. This is awesome! Thank you bud! We will definitely do some of the things you suggest.

FIRST OFF though: Let me express my thanks by telling you that with your long…[Read more]

You’re welcome Madz,

So take a look at the different versions of the Black Pearl you see. Most of them are textured completely differently. I left I think only one dark version in the game and it will appear randomly. So that ship is called Armed English Merchantman in the game because that’s what she looks like.

I prefer my more realistic…[Read more]

Look at what I just stumbled across. I have never even heard of this before.

Has anyone played this?

Can someone tell me if its any good?

This looks fun and pretty cool as well.

It’s cheap as heck! I am too busy to give it a try right now with all of the stuff I am working on with our own game, but maybe I will download it for later.…[Read more]

So for those modelers who want to submit Pirates of the Burning Sea ships I wanted to provide the exact contract verbiage as given to me by a dev a long while back and also quoted to me by one of the original modelers.
