Swashbuckler Boarding

Admiral8Q

Troublesome Corsair
To keep your officers from dying during boarding, tell them to sit out the next boarding. I find on Swashbuckler skill that they always seem to die. Make sure your character is up on melee first of course. Also don't be cheep with the weapons locker. Put some nice swords and firearms in to make your crew way better during boarding operations. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheers" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />

Aye, a good book that is! <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/8q.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":8q" border="0" alt="8q.gif" />
 
Can you buy that one ingame?
There are some useful books you can get.
Such as "Boelen Algebra". And "Morgan's Mast Mashing". <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />
 
ooh, yes, i like my books. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> one of them has a too long text though. it doesn't fit in the info screen. it's the one based on my spammage. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":rolleyes:" border="0" alt="rolleyes.gif" /> it would fit if the empty bits would be removed.
 
There should be a book called "Morgan's Ramming & Squashing". <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
i already have three books on my name, and i wouldn't really know what that book would do. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/happy.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="^_^" border="0" alt="happy.gif" />
 
What would a book by me have in it? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
Farting and shooting poops with arse? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />

And that Morgan's book idea I mentioned should increase your defence and sailing. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/yes.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":yes" border="0" alt="yes.gif" />
 
or maybe reduce your defence. it's kinda suicidal, but it somehow works. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />

wait, it should increase your luck!

You mean the book i mentioned above?

No, it was just a joke.....but it would be a good book to have in my collection, wouldnt it? <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />


all i know is that i have all the books in the game, but i carry only the ones that increase my skills ^^
when i get full points in all my skills, i will leave my books with my best friend and officer, Dr Maturin (in the game, not our matey here in the site :p)

And Morgan, your books are the best, i always read them (the tittle only, lol) <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
 
well, the info is also kinda funny. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="xD:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
 
All those books are pretty funny. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":cheeky" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" />
 
yup. there was also one on the importance of avoiding knotted pine decks when having a pegleg and things like that.
 
<b>Books that everyone should read:</b>
"How to Avoid Knotted Pine Decks"
"Morgan's Ramming & Squashing"
"Admiral8Q's Swashbuckling Boarding"
"Boelen Algebra"
"Morgan's Mast Mashing"
"Bore-Ding's I Have Known"
