Pirates Of The Burning Sea: Pirates of the Burning Sea Interview

A new interview has been posted!

Shack: When and where does Pirates of the Burning Sea take place?

Kevin Maginn: Pirates of the Burning Sea takes place in the Caribbean in 1720. In the real world, this was the closing of the Age of Piracy; Woodes Rogers had just cleaned out the last stronghold of piracy in the region by taking over New Providence. In our setting, the pirates are better-organized and better able to defend themselves; they've banded together under the flag of the Brethren of the Coast. This sets the stage for a three-way battle over control of the region, between France, England and Spain, with the powerful pirate nation acting as a spoiler and kingmaker.

You can be a citizen of France, England, Spain, or you can be a pirate. Pirates have the special ship capture abilities described above, as well as the ability to engage in PvP more easily than the other nations, and throughout more of the game world.

I cant see myself being a French Pirate... That just goes against nature...
