Its just fun to play
Seek your fortune on the high seas during the Golden Age of Piracy in this game of swashbuckling adventure!
Adventure on the High Seas
Merchants & Marauders plunges you into the world of the Caribbean during the
Golden Age of Piracy, where you can chart your own course to glory. Take command
of your ship and live the life of an influential merchant or become a dreaded
pirate. The choice is yours. Earn a fortune shipping bananas, sugar, and rum
from port to port. Or plunder peaceful merchant vessels and relieve them of
their gold and goods. Or make a name for yourself hunting rumors from Nassau to
Cartagena. Only one player can gain eternal glory.
In the Captain's Chair
A pirate is only as good as his ship, and you decide how to outfit your vessel.
With sixteen unique captains, each with his or her own unique abilities,
Merchants & Marauders invites a wide range of play styles. Work to your
captain’s strengths as you modify your ship, outfit it with deadly special
munitions, and hire specialized crew members. Do you a create a nimble ship
suited to piracy, or do you sacrifice speed to add space for extra cargo? No
matter what you choose, your mastery of the seas will become clear as you
purchase larger and more powerful ships, eventually upgrading from a lowly sloop
to an imposing galleon.
A Pirate's Life for Me
The choice between merchant and marauder is a difficult one, as both avenues
come with risks. Playing as a merchant leaves you vulnerable to attack from
pirates. But if you choose a life of piracy, all your raiding eventually leaves
you with a bounty on your head. When this happens, you’ll have to dodge the
authorities—as well as other players—if you want to continue your pirate
career. When it comes to combat, Merchants & Marauders has a deeply thematic
system that allows for critical decisions and intense excitement. Fire on your
opponent’s ship or board them and fight man to man. The risks are great, but
the rewards are greater!
Set Sail
Each game of Merchants & Marauders presents a unique world for you and your
friends to inhabit. Every turn brings new drama in the form of events that
provide the backdrop to the action taking place on the board. A violent
hurricane could rip through the Caribbean, or war could break out between two
naval powers. Whatever events unfold, the most cunning captains will adapt and
bend the situation into their favor.
