Ahoy there Captains,

This past week my wife and I have been sending an endless supply of broadsides in the form of emails to our manufacture's and fulfillment centers. It is still in the early post-process phase as we are waiting for Kickstarter to release the funds so we can start paying for the creation. This should happen towards the end of next week.

Speaking of next week, we will have some really exciting news that a lot of you are definitely going to love! I will keep everyone up to date, also check out the comment section on the kickstarter page we have an amazing community chatting up ideas and asking questions.

Thank you for your continued support you salty sea dogs!

If you can not get enough pirate stuff. Check out Pirate Republic, it's live on Kickstarter and the cool Captain Tom Butler and I have been chatting back and fourth like comrades planning a raid on some poor Spanish treasure fleet. :)

British vs Pirates is a success! (Day 29)
about 7 years ago – Thu, Mar 02, 2017 at 11:36:52 AM

Fans, Friends, above all, Captains!

That was one heck of a 29 day nautical pirate full throttle ride. I feel like I just made 597 friends. This project was born out of my love for the Golden Age of Piracy however it was brought to life by your enthusiasm and support. We slung ideas from damage systems to skill cards and even added a faction to the line up. Getting to know and hang out with all of you was the best part of the voyage.

Moving forward. Your job is done, now it's time for us to get to work. Our artist will be doing final touches as I tweak, balance and play test the final version of the game.

You can stay up to date with us during these phases on here and our facebook page. We will send out a survey in the coming weeks that will ask for your mailing address, confirming your order and purchasing any last minute Add-Ons.

I can not say enough amazing things about the community you Salty Captains built. Those that left comments, did shout outs, updated BGG.com or even crafted a homemade version of our game you rock and WE THANK YOU! From the bottoms of our humble pirate hearts, we are beyond excited to have British vs Pirates in your home. Thank you so very much Captains.

British vs Pirates Volume II, due out later this year. I'll see you on the high seas!
