A very interesting premise! I wonder if this will follow in the same vein of Red Dead, with Captain Morris forming his own fleet in the hopes of preserving a way of life that has long since passed.
Thanks so much for taking the time to commentA very interesting premise! I wonder if this will follow in the same vein of Red Dead, with Captain Morris forming his own fleet in the hopes of preserving a way of life that has long since passed.
It never is easy !The "silent conversation" at the beginning made me smile
Gun-running... Something tells me that Captain Morris's "simple, easy" assignment will be neither simple nor easy in the long run.
I hope Captain Samuel's gold advance was large, because this voyage is getting increasingly dodgy.
OK so revolutionary gun running is inherently dodgy, but the refusal to confirm the destination is suspicious. Samuel will need charts of where he is going so he needs to know, unless Diaz has just told him to buy charts for everywhere and is paying extra for secrecy. But that just makes the entire job seem even more worrying.
I do love "novel" AARs that use the game as the backdrop to the story. Keep up the good work!
Cheers!
The Carribean was indeed an opportunistic and hostile place!Manuel should know that smoking is hazardous to your health, then again, so is being part of the leadership of an armed revolution against the Spanish empire.
Exciting developments, Samuel is in for the delivery of his lifetime, to a mystery location no less.
But we British have atleast given him his life and some of his honour
Anything can happenIt would be interesting if they were actually double agents
A ripping yarn and a very promising AAR. This will be fun.
That is precisely what a Briton of the time would say.
Whatever else they may be, we can see that the rebels are not naive. And Captain Morris is the sort of man who will honor a contract, even if he has misgivings about it -- the mark of an honest man, even if he wouldn't call himself one.
It's great that you are liking my tale manI'm liking this so far. Samuel makes for an interesting protagonist, and I'm curious what this pirate can do for the revolutionaries.
WowInteresting test. I guess you have to make sure when you deal with a pirate... I was actually pleasantly surprised he wouldn't betray the rebels for a big payout from Spain, somewhat un-pirate-like. Of course, he may be too smart to fall for a trap like that, and he may be planning something devious to make him very rich one way or another. I'm excited to find out where exactly he's supposed to bring the guns.
Thankyou so much for liking my AAR and commenting.I think what really makes this and others like it (especially this one) is the pictures, all around this is an interesting plot, the only criticism I have is the failure to use proper English at times, other than that "The Last Pirate" has a solid start.
It'll take more than a week with no updates for me to consider anyone on this forum deceased...To all my dear readers,
No
This great story isn't dead
Next update on Sunday
This is not a big delay. It's not even a small delay. I read The Butterfly Effect: A British AAR, it's hard to beat that AAR for delay between updates. To be fair it was updated very recently, and the updates are worth the wait. If you publish quality content, it really doesn't matter that much how long we have to wait for it. We'll read it when it gets posted.Hence the big delay.
Damn right, a couple of weeks is nothing. 18 months between updates, now that is a proper big delay.It'll take more than a week with no updates for me to consider anyone on this forum deceased...
