Fantasy Draft VIII - Captains Only

[Zephore]

..you go and mess up my plans...


Anyway. Sir Henry Morgan; you'll be my next pick.
Rum lord, banker, gold, voodoo... He has it all.
He's clever, he's smart, he's a thinker.

Now, I don't only choose him for his prowess in port battles though... He'll also be our negotiator. I've had a few chats with him, and he's a nice humble lad - just don't provoke him too much

[William Pitt]

My quartermaster, the first, and only escapee from Noffins plantation, my first mate, and I, debate for hours on which captain to visit next and when to set sail.

As the sun falls behind the cloudy ocean horizon,signalling the start of the first lunar phase, we finally leave the cove. Looking in the sky and quickly locating the Polaris, we set sail for Vaasburg.

At a little past midnight, under the cover of darkness, me and me crew sail pass the port.....where are we going?

We have arranged to meet our next captain on the uninhabited islands between Vaas/Neap.

This Cap'n has gained my respect over the years, a formidable opponent and loyal friend. A savage whose reputation precedes him, Shadowood.

[Banger]

Well, admittedly, losing Shadow and Will both was a bit of a blow to my plan but alas that is the way the tide turns. Luckily, my list is deep and my plan for port domination continues.

While it is always popular to have the more currently relevant captains on your team, sometimes you have to remember there are some old salts lurking out there that have battled for and held ports for many years. These crafty old sailors are not to he slept on as they can pass vengeance as swiftly as day turns to night. This pair once were stalwarts of Spain and while one has moved on to Tokelau, the other remains a faithful citizen of Spain to this day. These old sea dogs have both pummeled me with voodoo in the name of defending their ships and Spain. My next two picks are none other than Stan Rogers and Jim Hawkins.

[William Pitt]

Ah, we are going for ol' sea dogs now? During my time on the high seas, only a few has sailed with as much grace and pride as Lodswe.

A no nonsense Cap'n who has remained loyal to Spain throughout years of turmoil and years of prosperity. He no doubt has the knowledge, wealth and chest to turn even the most destitute port into a prosperous logistic hub for any nation.

[Zephore]

Right.

Nelson, I know you currently don't like me, but no hard feelings bud, it's just like when I joined Montenegro, back in my rookie days.

So... I pick Nelson. He's single-handedly took and kept ports, and one of the most fearsome pirates to touch the seas of avonmora. I often found myself reading about Roberts and TPK when I joined the game. I admire the guy, and as of recently he set a new record for influence... Even after dumping millions in wrong port. You don't want to be s target of his- he'll turn your own gold against you.

[Anne_bonny]

The man I would seek out next is someone who can up the pressure and hold it there, The only person on these seas to make me consider leaving the game and someone who helped shape me into the Pirate I am... Would you please step aboard, Tom lowe.

[Lachlan]

my 7th pick is Captain Ron Duke of USA who was King twice and I've been told was one of the key players in getting USA to where it is now, a powerhouse in PG
