Sid Meir's Pirates!


An (evil) Spanish nobleman, the Marquis de Montalban, enslaves the hero's family because the family does not pay their debt to him (the fleet of ships under their control is lost at sea.) The hero, at this time a boy, manages to evade capture. Several years later, he enters a bar, where he is given a list of options to define his name, difficulty level, special skill, and preferred era. After selecting these, the player must choose which nation to initially sail with: the English, Dutch, Spanish or French. In every case the voyage on this ship is harsh and the captain treats the hero and his fellow crew like slaves (oddly, no matter what nationality the player signs onto, the captain is identical to the Spanish recruiter, though not necessarily Spanish, as this is to avoid the creation of multiple movie files) until he incites a mutiny by his ill treatment. The crew sets the captain adrift and selects the hero as their new captain. After this, the ship is the hero's and he is deposited a short distance from a major city of the ship's nationality.community.
