RANGERULERS

Scott Everest aka ScottE and Mechtech got togheter and made one of the most helpful items for this game, the Rangeruler and Advanced Rangerule. This is a PDF file containing 2 of each: http://tinyurl.com/7k4v5

We also recommend their other Pirates stuff, check out http://www.basecontact.com/

 

PIRATES DATABASE

DaveE have made a searchable cardlist, this is a great tool when you are looking for ships that will fit into your fleet: http://www.suave.net/~dave/cgi/potsm/carddata.pl

 

FONTS

Write like a Pirate! Get the Windlass font for free from TypOasis: http://moorstation.org/typoasis/pirates/windlass.htm 

This is what Tere Carral wrote about the fonts used in the Pirates game: “The titles are indeed in Windlass, but the fiction and abilities written on the cards is Grit Primer. The Font on the actual logo is our own.”

 A quick How To by nedry:

1. Download the file. I suggest saving to desktop.
2. Call up Control Panel, open Fonts.
3. Drag file from Desktop into Fonts.

Hope this helps.
