Grabthar

We realized when we left that we were missing our Boatswain. I personally will not be online at all this Saturday. Found out yesterday that My best friend needs me to cater a party. He's paying me and it's for my God-daughter so yes I will be there lol. Give me a few hours and I will figure something non-meta to do. :)

Might wanna lock the chests and add pirates to them. Incase some "citizens" feel like grabbin some goodies while nobody its looking lol.. I will be on most of friday, either on forums or in game setting things up. Will also be in TS to chat. This will be great i hope.

Calm yerselves. The Flame has two gunners... Markus is the smithy and does the heavy liftin, Urugawa is our engineer and design specialist. Takes more then one man te fire three cannons. *chuckles*

Good.. wee'll meet in the tavern and have a few Ales.. do it right. Gaaaaaarrrrr!

Aye... A meetin we need, there be plans that should be set inte motion.

((I love it.. Good luck.))

((Agreed. Only cities with used docks and harbors can feasibly have working Naval militaries. And also remember that it takes quite a few members to successfully operate a vessel.))

((I would love that... I'm just verifying Lore. Wanted to make sure you had reasonably acquired them. That's all. Just want to make sure everything is ok.))

((As far as I knew, they shouldn't have had them. Alras spend like 100 IG years developing them. I was under the assumption that the Das Boot battle used trebuchets and catapults. Maybe I am wrong.))

((I would love the working ships mod.. but have been told the lag would not work with our server. *sad panda face*))

((Where did Seventis gain their knowledge in the use of cannons?))

I understand your want to know the facts lol. Here's what I would have assumed to happen. Two opposing faction leaders discuss a battle OOC. It is then the leaders responsibility to alert his guards and citizens of what they need to know IC. To avoid Meta I strongly think only the leaders should know details. As this is going to be a surprise attack IG, I would love to have the most realistic reactions to us arriving. That way when we attack, every guard doesn't run straight to the dock to kill us. I doubt you guys would do that but I have to be safe since I have been spending a lot of time setting this up. I also look forward to this, and hope it goes amazing so as to set a standard for all of our raids in the future.

Sorry if it seems unoriginal. I agree, but the name Blackbeard was on signs in the port when we found it. That's the only reason i am using it. Also i used the universal terms of crew members used by nearly all pirates through history. I modified duties and requirements to make them Minecraft friendly but the basic overview is based on Caribbean Pirate lore. The name Skullport was not from a book that i knew of. I actually took it from my days playing dungeons and dragons. It was the name of a small pirate infested town off the Sword Coast in Faerun. My MC name is swordcoast25 so i liked the connection. Also, when we found this port in Asulon, there was a large skull carved into the mountainside. Therefore the name Skullport fit quite nicely. I know you didn't mean these posts to be hostile. I still love you Vol. Trust me, I am trying to make this an original pirate crew that falls into the Pirates of the Caribbean template. I hope you understand. But thank you for your constructive criticism. I always accept it.

We were planning to make Holm the first target because most of us had old characters there and still have our stuff in locked chests. This would be a way for us to RP getting our own stuff back, and help you demolish some buildings.. We would only lay waste to ones that you wanted destroyed. I was trying to make it not only fun.. but useful to you guys. I would never destroy stuff you spent recent time building... Just damage stuff so you had a reason to rebuild.

((Ah ok then.. I didn't know Holm knew you were a pirate. Damn you Willie ;P. Keep yer head down ye scallywag.))
