Introduction

The year is 1720, and the wondrous New World has become a battleground. The three great powers of the day ¡ª Spain, England, and France ¡ª vie for control of the valuable islands of the Caribbean, exploiting their resources and competing through both massive merchant empires and blistering naval cannon. Centuries of European grudges and intrigue now play out in the churning waters of the Burning Sea where valiant naval captains, savvy merchants, and rapacious pirates battle it out for riches and reputation.

Be Who You Want! Choose your side and seek your fortune. Which crown do you serve? Spain has the richest ports. England’s navy is unmatched. France’s ship design is the best in the world. When they go to war, no one is truly neutral.

No limiting character classes. Don’t get stuck investing all your time in a class you’ll get tired of ¡ª be who you want to be with our skill-based system. You could pursue a merchant career, either as a free trader or working for a powerful trading company, then sign up with the navy when war breaks out and work your way up the ranks of the officer corps. When war ends, get revenge on your enemies by rejecting civilization and becoming a dastardly pirate. Then do it all again! We’ve taken the shackles off of RPGs and given you the freedom to pursue your own destiny.

Skills, not levels. Tired of the level treadmill, where you have to kill 10,000 rats before you stop being a loser? We don’t do levels. Instead we have an extensive skill list with numerous specializations for you to explore. Skills are measured both on knowledge and practice. You’ll need a combination of book learning and hard use to master the highest specializations in the game.
