Pirate Forum request...

[Shinobi]

I plan on having a fleet of player pirate-run ships ready to go soon, and it would be nice to have a forum to post in. Reason being, i can't think of where to post a thread about getting pirate crews together.

Pirates can be considered an offshoot of PvP thieves, but murderers will be part of crews too. A successful pirate crew will have a captain, multiple players manning the cannons at all times, and a few thieves and murderers to jump onto the enemy ship when allowed.

Yes, thieves can also become murderers, but most will want to remain blue. That is why i plan to recruit murderers as well. Where are they meant to post?

Also, a pirate is limited to PvP only. There is no such thing as a trammel pirate, so no need for two forums.

Let me know if anyone agrees.

Shard-specific forum, perhaps?

I have to disagree with the bit in bold, unless of course you meant that only your Pirate crew will participate in PvP.

As to where you should post... your shard forum.

Stratics has guild forums that you can apply and get I believe. Might try PMing an Admin.

There are npc merchant ships on which Trammel pirates can prey.

 

[Shinobi]

Sorry guys, i thought the only NPC ships you could fight were pirates, didn't know about merchants. My bad.

Regardless, i think soon, if not already, i won't be the only player wanting to get this into pirating. It will be more than just one guild. But, i suppose we can see how it plays out. Until then, i guess i'll post all pirate threads on the Atlantic forum.

So... will there be "A Pirate Tax" so the pirates will not bother honest merchants who pay the extortion fee?

Hmmm, not a bad idea, haha.

Actually I think a few of us tested using shot against a warred opponent in Trammel does hurt. Not sure yet if it damages the boat but we'll soon find out as we plan to test this.
