Spain, Portugal, England, France and to a lesser extend Italy, Holland and Germany are battling for land and gold and exotic good. Colonies, Governors, Fortresses, trade, war, Politics.<br /> This takes place in the Caribbean, where else?<br /> http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e66/nokvok/Central_america.jpg<br /> <br /> Magic is 'not' obviously existent. Though there of course are Shamans and and other people who 'believe' in Magic.<br /> I don't exactly have something about Non-European chars.. Chinese or Native Americans or whatever.<br /> Though I would find it a style breach if you'd 'mix' stuff... like a French Fencer wielding a Katana, or an African Tribal warrior operating a Musket... without very good explanation.<br /> <br /> It might be up to three Allied Ships with a common 'base' of sorts.<br /> <br /> Tortuga is one of the last free cities and thus overly often visited by pirates and out of reach of most troops.<br /> It is NOT a hellhole of Pirates, honest man and woman life work and trade there as well. It is unwritten law that these peasants are to be left alone!<br /> <br /> <br /> == Plot ==<br /> <br /> There will be plot &lt;.&lt; &gt;.&gt; not overly complicated or surprising plot, but there will be some.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> == Chars ==<br /> <br /> Heh, Pirate campaigns bear the best possibility for unusual backgrounds, wild pasts and tragic twists of fate. Old enemies, Reputations.<br /> It is highly likely that your Chars know each other at least remotely.</div> Wed, 11 Apr 2007 15:13:49 GMT 84.140.245.188 http://72.14.177.54/egs_mayhem/Talk:Pirates!
