Coming soon! An alternate history of piracy in the caribbean!
Teasers:
* The game will take place on ships.
* roleplayers will have the choice of joining a submarine crew and searching the high seas for plunder and profit.
* Roleplayers will have to battle both themselves and the environment to pursue the ultimate treasure in one of the most dangerous environments on the high seas: hard currents and the interior of a volcano!
In the early 1610s, an English naval scientist by the name of Tobias Steele came up with a great invention: an ironclad ship capable of operating deep beneath the waves. He called it the submarine. In conjunction with the press and the Royal Navy, Steele recruited an able-bodied test corps to work the newly designed and minted machine. Signtings were dismissed as logs and record-sized pike in London Harbor and the English Channel.
After a few months, the French, Spanish and Dutch sent spies to observe the machinery, however, unable to find any actual information, they went straight to the source: Tobias Steele's London Naval Administration Office.
Spain was the first to steal Steele's patented naval tech. They quickly reproduced the ship's designs. Their prototype, the Picador, sailed into the English Channel late one night and hunted for ships. However, the more refined versions of Steele's design were also in the English Channel that night. The first submarine battle took place between the Picador and the HMS Poseidon. The sleeker and better-armed Poseidon, armed with primitive explosive torpedoes and a better ram, crippled the Picador beneath the waves, where her crew perished.
In response, Spain quickly massed and built a huge armada of submarines and launched them en mase against England. The whole building action took three years, in an equal amount of time England had a third of the number of ill-equipped and outdated Spanish subs. The Battle for the English Channel lasted two and a half days, yet no-one noticed until fragments of the defeated Spanish submarines drifted ashore in London Harbor.
Realizing the usefulness of these ships as a military and naval weapon, England expanded its empire across the whole of the world. Piracy flourished from copied english designs, and entire navies operated beneath the waves. Only recently, a massive island filled to the brim was found within a low-hanging and permanent fog.
Are you willing to sail beneath the waves to find it?
