Tips and Tricks

When firing on another vessel, if you miss your target, change the angle up or down - the prompts will tell you whether you over or under shot the ship. Upgrade your cannons and hull as soon as you get some extra gold. They'll help you win more sea battles. Upgrade your ship's figurehead - each choice gives your ship extra power and protection in the midst of battle. Use parlay to convince a peaceful merchant to bribe you rather than be attacked. While sailing to another island you can gain easy earnings by attacking passing ships. Sometimes it's okay to "Flee the Battle" if your opponent is too powerful and your ship is already badly damaged. Scour the islands to find buried treasure and other valuable loot. Don't play this game while you're driving a car! Remember, purchased ship upgrades are different depending the island where you are ported.
