    New Stuff for Pirates (Bonus Content and Map)!

    The standard game in the UK was around £30 on release. The LE version of the game was around £50 on release. Don't sound legal to me, if people have paid extra for exclusive content, that's not exclusive anymore... not that anyone gives a rats arse lol.

    Original Priates, For FREE!

    <!--QuoteBegin-Slick+--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Slick)</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->That's right, the original version has become abandonware. Meaning, the developers and whatnot decided to stop `mass-producing` it (probably years ago) and it is now available for free to...

    Baron Raymondo never go into a port

    A few nights ago I fought him outside a port, when I visited the Tavern I fought him there also (first time it's happened), then the game crashed <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

    A game looking like those funny Pirates battles?

    My bad... I only read the initial post and then the following 9 replies before I decided to post <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Still, <b>RISK</b> (the tabletop game) is...

    A game looking like those funny Pirates battles?

    I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned <b>RISK</b> the classic strategy tabletop wargame, invented by the Parker brothers in 1959 and it's still going strong. I actually bought an up to date version last week. On Firday night (just gone) I went around to a friends house, and 3 of us played...

    New ATi 5.1 drivers released. Fixed Pirates Video flickering

    Same here, the new drivers haven't done a bloody thing. With AA on, I still get the flickering video's. I've posted on the ATi forums (others have replied stating the samething) and I've sent in a support request to their database.

    New ATi 5.1 drivers released. Fixed Pirates Video flickering

    As an Omega user for 3 years, I had to switch to ATi's official driver to stop any hangups. I think that in reality certain system files must have been corrupted and installing either Omega or ATi replaces them.. swings and roundabouts. I wouldn't say that using Omega drivers is a generic...

    New ATi 5.1 drivers released. Fixed Pirates Video flickering

    Advantage of a large fleet?

    Just upgrade your flagship with tripple hammocks for the extra bods needed for a land battle. I would get rid of any extra ships as soon as possible as the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. Main Pros: If you loose a ship sword fight in Pirates! (which let's face it doesn't happen...

    You can buy cannons, I do it all the time. Try looking further and harder.

    Prima's Official Strategy Guide: Sid Meier's Pirates!

    Years ago, you didn't have to buy 'guides' as it would all be in the manual. Another money saving/money making scheme.. bah humbug.

    This is Great- if Sid would just do the same for `X-Com`...

    I totally agree as well, look at Mechwarrior 4, it's utter sh i te when compared to 3 & 2, which were an improvement over Mechwarrior 1.

    Is There Enough Time???

    Thanks Python, If you hear of a trainer that keeps the aging process, but slows down how quickly you age, then let me know about that one.

    Is There Enough Time???

    I don't think there's enough time in the game, regardless of the fact that you may select Medicine as your skill. You can complete all the tasks in the game within the time period, that's not what I mean. What I do mean, is that you're always under pressure, against the clock, to get things...
