The ship allows you to fight at sea against other crews (Only if you there are two pirates in your crew with over 15 000 xp).

A new map will appear (link: go out to sea) on the crew’s screen. The aim is to own as many territories as possible, and achieve as many victories as possible, by clicking on the vacant spots or by fighting against the red dots, which are in fact other teams.

The orange dots represent the teams that are already busy or that do not have any remaining moves left.

The yellow dots represent the crews of which at least one pirate is currently online.

Upon going out to sea, you will see at the very first an empty map. You wil need to click on a spot, randomly, and that is where you ship will be positioned (symbolised by a red and white dot). You can exchange your coordinates with other teams, this makes battling easier.

Then, each time you will click on the map, you will either stumble upon a ship, or upon your own territory, or upon a vacant territory...

Every day, a set number of territories is withdrawn from the map, at random.

If you stumble upon an opponent’s ship, a screen shows up, each member of the teams that are ready to battle can click on ‘participate’ to take part in the battle.

Each crew member can also register all the pirates of his team for the battle at sea.

When at least 2 pirates are ready, they can click on «Team ready ».

At that point in time in the game, the attacking team can still cancel the battle.

Once everyone is ready to bash each other up with canonballs, the battle can begin.

Each ship’s structure is represented by this icon, as well as the special equipment it has set up.

You are playing by taking turns, each time with the possibility to carry out several actions, some directly depending on what your team has decided to buy at the market for its ship (explosive bombs, repair kits or other).

THE FIRST ATTACK IS RANDOM, SO AS TO REPRESENT THE LACK OF ACCURACY OF THE ATTACKING SHIP AGAINST AN UNKNOWN ENEMY (this is also to avoid disadvantageing at each strike those who get attacked and hence lose a turn).

You can also decide to attempt ransacking a part of the opponent's treasure during the battle, but the money collected will only be counted if you WIN the battle.

All the attacks are available via this menu :

When one of the teams has defeated the other, the battles at sea map is replaced by the territory map, and you will be able to see the battle’s report by clicking on DETAILS. The earnings achieved during the battle are explained here (money won, (depending on the variety and amount of attacks used, all the mathematical details are in the FAQ ), experience ( from 50 to 120 if there are at least 10 f you, and from 80 to 120 beyond)).

It is also important to know that each team has 6 minutes to play its turn, or else the opponent takes its turn. After 4 absences, the team loses for repeated absence.

Similarly, if a fight request is sent out but remains unanswered for a whole day, the fight will be cancelled. (If one of the 2 teams is ready after this 1 day break, the team that is NOT READY will lose a victory).

The victories at sea are important because they will allow you to unblock new adventures.

Yours adventures :

You will have to do your best to unblock these quests, for instance by achieving victories at sea, on the refuge, with your league, etc...

1 - the Blue Bay : you will need to defeat the vile Matiax in his domain and be faster than him to win fabulous Bonus Cards, with their various effects.

Beware however, the map leading to the Blue Bay is not free of charge...

2 – your Refuge : a new step for your crew.

You will have to walk through the refuge map in its entirety, set up your camps, collect amazing treasures, and have access to refuge battles.

You will find the explanation on the refuge homepage.

3 - the League : after a set number of victories on the Refuge island, you will need to make a league, gathering of THREE crews, ready to do anything for victory.

The Cursed island map will open its doors to you. You will have to relieve it from its Sacred Jewels by collecting as many clues as possible before the others.

Fantastic battles await you if you fall face to face with one of the other contesting leagues...
Once the jewels collected, you will be able to exchange them against quest Objects, which will be very useful later on.

4 – The Sea Gods : to join the crews hall of fame, you will need to prove your bravery by facing the terrifying Sea Gods.

To defeat them, only one method : buy the adequate equipment at the wharf...

5 – The Finaly Battle against the Deamon : Legendary power of the Oceans, the Marine Deamon has, it seems, always existed.

Dare to face him defeat him, and the name of your league will forever remain carved in history...
