Anyone play Sea Dogs on the PC? I heard it was good. Have any input?

That's next on my list! Plus eagerly awaiting the film to be released later in the year!

Master and Commander...I read the story on the site but what exactly is it about....pyracy or just a simple seafaring story?

Ok I was wondering if anyone knew where I could find Replica's of Pyrate ships? I found a couple models by Lindberg but not much else. Can someone guide me to the light so to say? :)

Although I'd take the information in it with a grain of salt, if you haven't read

"A General History of Pirates.." by Capt. Chas. Johnson is a good read.

So is "Badits at Sea: A Pirate Reader" C.R. Pennel editor

"Expedition WHYDAH The Story of the World's First Excavation of a ... " by Barry Clifford (I got it as a gift under the title of the Black Ship...")

For a non-flattering book on Morgan try "Buccaneers of America" by Alexander O. Exquemelin (Morgan sued for libel on this book and won)

"Cup of Gold..." by John Stienbeck (a fictional story of Morgan but a good read)

That should get you started!

Thanx a bundle.....A couple I am particularly interested in are Blackbeard, Calico Jack, and Edward Low. Anything of good quality specifically on them?

Are there any good quality books out there on some of the specific pyrates? I've read Under The Black Flag by David Cordingly already and am on round two. I was just looking for some good books that are on Black Beard, Henry Morgan, Emanuel Wynne, Edward Low, Batholomew Roberts, or Calico Jack Rackham specifically. Can anyone help me?

Well I think with POTC they can make a 3 part series. If you think about it, it would help answer some of the questions people may have regarding the plot and its holes. You could make a prequel telling the story of Sparrow, and the crew of the Black Pearl. This would cover Sparrow's abandonment on the island, the mutiny of the crew as well as whatever happened to Boot Strap Bill. Then of course you have POTC. Then you could have a sequel that maybe does the adventures of Sparrow and Turner or whatever story you could devise to follow up POTC. It could be a good 3 part series that involves pyracy. It all depends on how well you direct/produce the films. I also do not advocate turning it into an endless series or prolonged series like Star Wars and a few Horror series. But that just my 2 cents.
