Anyway glad you found her Pirates is a tighter package play is simplier and quicker. Spain controls the Spanish Main (including Curacao), Mexico, Jamaca and Cuba. I don't know whether it's just this game (this is my first one), but England controls just the Lesser Antilles, including Guadalupe and Martinque. One weird thing is that the islands are not ruled as history records.

You can get blessings from the church and thereby gain morale for your convoy. You can build factories in 'governor towns' and manufacture rum, rope, clothing or meat. You gather pieces of a treasure maps from strangers sitting in inns. You can court to Governor's daughter, who slips you information, and, as you can see from my OP, you can marry her.

To be the most powerful Trader of the New World, you have to create trade routes, build industries and develop the economy of the colonies. The way of the Trader is mostly about developing your riches and your economic power. And of course, trade will have a less important role to play in your rise. If you chose the way of the Adventurer, lead an unforgiving campaign for the conquest of the seas: invasion, piracy, bounty hunting, raiding do whatever it takes to build your own empire in the Caribbean. To achieve that goal, you may choose one of the two available campaigns: will you become an Adventurer or a Trader? And there you are, a young sea captain whose only goal is to become the most powerful man in the New World. The mighty kingdoms of Spain, England, France and the Netherlands fight over the colonies.
