The Pirate's Summit

Okay, I want to include a section in the <a href="/node/2700">Traders and Freighters Guidebook</a> on Pirates and Privateers, and I want to know what you all want to see there. I couldn't justify a full book on the subject, but I can definitely see making a pretty substantially sized section in this book on the subject.<br /><br />The Traders and Freighters Guidebook covers commerce and trade in the Frontier as it affects your game and will even provide rules for a boardgame of corporate conquest (yet to be designed).<br /><br />While the section on pirates and privateers will cover the rules and tricks of their trade, it will not give much in the way of equipment, vehicles, or warships of these scallywags. It merely covers their background, code, conduct, reputations, societal structure, raiding procedures, and way of life. However, in line with the theme of the book, there will be ships. If there is anything specific you would like to see, or if there is existing material on pirates that you would like me to know about, let me know here or over at the Traders and Freighters Guidebook project.<br /><br />I may provide a handful of notorious pirates and their ships in that section, so if there's anyone you want to see and perhaps have their stats, let me know. Because, if I produce stuff that you don't like, it won't be my fault that any particular person didn't speak up. In a community like this, the effort you give is the quality you get.
