Armed with a secret map and starting with a modestly outfitted sloop salvaged from last winter's storm, you set sail to Pirate's Cove, your eyes filled with visions of treasure and fame, your lungs filled with the salty air of the High Seas.
Your objective: to battle for the rights to plunder and become the most famed and feared Pirate the world has ever seen. To do so, you will need to navigate shrewdly, fight recklessly and pillage mercilessly.
You will gain fame by winning battles, burying gold and treasure, and bragging about your exploits at the Tavern.
At the end of twelve months, the pirate with the most fame will be declared the most fearsome Pirate of the High Seas!
