AN ERA OF AMBITION AND OPPORTUNITY
During this Golden Age of Piracy, intrepid freebooters seek their fortune upon the high seas, black-sailed marauders prey upon Spanish treasure ships returning from the New World, and opportunistic privateers, emboldened by their ‘letters of marque’ reap the profits of war from their influential patrons.
At the centre of this cutthroat world lies the 'Republic of Pirates', a powerful league of pirate clans bound together by their shared ambitions and code of honour. But while the early days of the confederacy were prosperous, greed and jealousy soon began to spread culminating in a vicious mutiny and final bloody breakup. It now falls upon your shoulders to set out to reclaim your father’s legacy and bring justice to the traitors who wronged you!
FINDING PARADISE
In 'Republic of Pirates' you’ll be tasked with founding a modest outpost on a remote Caribbean island and growing it into a sprawling pirate settlement with a self-sustaining economy. Construct production buildings such as sugar plantations and rum distilleries to cultivate and refine resources, and distribute goods via a network of couriers, warehouses, and black markets to increase the wealth of your citizens.
Visit the inn to recruit talented captains and utilise the shipyard to build up a powerful fleet before taking to the waves in the name of conquest. Command your ships in real-time as you plunder merchant vessels, clash with rival pirate clans, and liberate islands to add to your burgeoning republic. Expand your reach while shrewdly navigating complex diplomatic relationships with influential trading companies, and rise above the global superpowers of the time!
