If you don't want to see spoilers about the POTC movies and other pirate pop culture media, then I suggest you do not visit this forum. There will be spoilers posted. There are many other forums to visit here at the pub such was Captain Twill, Plunder and Raids. There are many pirate pop media in circulation at this time. This forum is a place where people can converse about these. The posts may contain spoilers. I will not censor for spoilers. Read the posts at your own risk. Yers in pyracy and play,

Bring your attention ‘round right quick, now! This Kickstarter ends July 4. I had the pleasure of playing this game pre-release at AdeptiCon this spring with dear Rats - and I can attest to its worthiness! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/firelockgames/port-royal/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR0CMd7o-MRYLBQf72ZXgYTaRJkHHGEns0m4GEX5WegM67en0xhDtAZJJlI_aem_AZGIjgkoz3SPADrEMuWhClMkE5I49ydIEEb4-ZD5DQV_Ey1dwp2zrkTKvPTmZ1TrtsWPT7HLZrNgbnDuTlyN_bnd

Has anyone else watched Boundless on Amazon Prime? It's about Ferdinand Magellan and Juan Sebastián Elcano's 1519 voyage to circumnavigate of the globe. Way too early for the Golden Age, but nautical history all the same.

July 9th marks the 20 year anniversary of the theatrical release of Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl and the subsequent launch of the film franchise! While it’s rapidly approaching, I’m still trying to plan something to celebrate the occasion. Are others planning anything? If so, what? Please share any plans, thoughts, and/or ideas you might be having; or feel free to discuss your memories of seeing the film for the first night, what influence and/or impact the film (or franchise) has had on you (good or bad), etc. While the 9th is a Sunday and a work night for most of us, I’ll likely be kind to me neighbors and not do anything too extrav…

In Pirates of the Carribean dead man's chest, they are playing "one flop" Liars dice.... It's a standard bar game.... but there are reginal differences with the game... So I will discribe how the game is played in Central California..... Before I start.... one word of warning.... if the "local" has thier favorite dice cup, and the dice are chipped..... THEY ARE CHEATING..... and interestingly enough.... I've seen this way too often..... Equipment needed... for each player one dice cup..... good sturdy leather so you can realy SLAM it onto the bar top... 5 dice (unchipped) Each player rolls thier dice, and keep the result secret... (also watch for people who will …

So I've been giddily excited for this game for years - am possibly the only person in the world who played AC: Black Flag FOR the sailing and nautical combat rather then in spite of so a game built specifically on those mechanics sounds delightful to me. But then just found this gem of a trailer with a "shanty" they had written just for the game, that is hands down an absolute bop. Any other games pirates frothing at the mouth for this to come out already around here?

From Rome to Ragnarok, he’s been a Viking, a Pirate, a Musketeer, and much, much more! But he will perhaps be best remembered by most of us here for his portrayal of Blackbeard on Black Sails. Requiescat in Pace to Ray Stevenson who left this world too early on Sunday at only 58 years of age. Cause of death has not yet been released.

Tonight I was able to see a screening of the new STARZ TV series “Black Sails”. I’ve been eagerly watching the trailers on facebook and through a twist of luck I managed to see the pilot episode in a theater on the big screen! My first impressions: This series requires “thinking” as it weaves a tale of intrigue. With a director behind it like Michael Bay you know you’re going to see some explosions (and you do!) but the detailed backstory and sub plots might be a bit much for your average viewer. Not as much action as you come to expect from Michael Bay but this isn’t a bad thing as the pilot sets up the characters and lets you know a lot has yet to be revealed. T…

Hi folks I'm currently working on a Airworld for D&D 5th RPG but it could be a Standard Fantasy world, it's a world were the Landmasses are flying in the in orbit around the core at different levels in the Air. The Wooden Ships are made out of Timber that floats in the Air due to the Sap in the Wood. War and Trade are done in the Air since there is no Standard Landmasses, LW

Recently while sailing the Netflix shores I discovered a few interesting streaming films that have a pirate theme or similar adventure styled tales. I though perhaps the Pub members could share Netflix gems they have found streaming? We can even share documentaries and historical features. I found the following: Treasure Island 1999 (with Jack Palance as Long John Silver) Treasure Island 2012 (with Eddie Izzard as Long John Silver and Elijah Wood as Ben Gunn) Treasure Planet, Disney's animated science fantasy version of the classic story. Rob Roy Plunkett and MacLeane

Since I am working on a list myself, I figure you all might have some ideas as well. I know some of us will have a CD with "pirate music" on it to listen to on the way to a show site or what-have-you, but taking that idea a bit further,....the question is what movies would you put on a list for something to watch before a show [like maybe the two days preceding it] to get in to that right mindset? Now this does not necessarily mean the best portrayals or costuming or anything like that,....but what movies give you the right "vibe" or "feeling" to put you mind in the right space to play a pirate?
