If you have the lighter class of ship, please consider setting sail from Isla de Avaricia or Ile D'Etable de Porc.

This should minimize the causality list :psmiley35:


Then all ships will gather at Devil's Anvil where you will get behind our flag ships for the event.


Cutthroat Rogue

Bilge Dragon

Storm Runner

Shadow Rogue

Shadow Wolf



The ships will lead you on the following route:

From Devil's Anvil to:

Tortuga
Rumrunner's Isle
Driftwood Island
Isla Perdida
Cuba
Isla Tormenta
Outcast Isle
Padres del Fuego
Kingshead
Cutthroat Isle
Isle de Avaricia
Ile D'Etable de Porc
Isla Cangrejos
Tortuga
Devil's Anvil
Port Royal

and then we BLOCKADE Port Royal by completely circling the island!!!!!!


And to keep to the pirate code - don't stop to engage the enemy.

Just blast them with yer broadsides as ye pass :pirate_flag:


Now, this be fun and all, but I know ye want yer loot and we have some mighty fine loot.

http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/f...POF_Armada.png


In order to claim the prize, all ye have to do is post a single screen shot of the event. Feel free to post more if you want, but it only takes one to get the award. Only the person posting the picture will get the award.

We also have a place already set up in the Gallery for all of those cool screenshots - so just post away in the POF Gallery Armada folder



:fireworks2: Hope to see you there :fireworks2:

No, there can be multiple pirates on the ship, but each person will need to submit their own screen shot to get the award.

JM Ohara 12-30-2009 09:43 AM

Yay! I loved the July Regatta! Even better, I can bring ya two ships, just to help extend the blockade. What a great last fling before I gotta send my lappy for service!

Mark bladeflint 12-30-2009 04:13 PM

Lol good thing I just bought a war sloop XD.

bartholomew bladeroberts 12-30-2009 04:30 PM

my ship the lightning revenge will be there

Captain Del 12-30-2009 05:16 PM

Oooh, forgot, just another question: Do we all meet up on Devils, or do we just launch our ship once we get there?

Ofury/ Tom 12-30-2009 05:27 PM

keep a wether eye on the horizen look for the Scallywag plunderer i'll try and make it with my mates but things seem to kepp coming up lol

Bartholomew Foulsteel 12-30-2009 05:53 PM

Well, looks like I'll be missing thiss one. I'll be snowmobiling at the same time with my family. But then again, it's not like that's a BAD thing....

ENJOY the event everyone!

Captin Spencer 12-30-2009 06:24 PM

ill see if i can Sea Wolf

Rosa_ESG 12-30-2009 06:38 PM

To block an island sounds fun? O_o

NanoMiester 12-30-2009 06:57 PM

Awesome This will be cool.

Dockwrecker The Privateer 12-30-2009 07:33 PM

Only problem this time is we can't see each other ship-to-ship....but other than that,this should be good. :D

Capt Seafury 12-30-2009 10:10 PM

I didn't attend the last one, wasn't a member here then, but I'll try and be there in my ship, the Golden Phoenix.

We meet on the sea - keep an eye out for the lead ships listed in the first post.

You can launch from any island you want to and then sail to meet the group (trust me - you won't be able to miss us) where we will begin.

If you have the lighter class of ship, please consider setting sail from Isla de Avaricia or Ile D'Etable de Porc.



Chris 12-31-2009 05:29 PM

Woot the last one we had was amazing! Cant wait to see this one I will be there!

Its never a bad thing to be on a snowmobile. I might even end up on mine but just riding solo, as very few people around me have them and if they do they never ride when I do.

Even if it were to show, I think thar be nuff pirates about to defeat the beastie!

CarribeanThunder 01-01-2010 08:41 PM

You know, things like this make me glad Disney fixed the bug where being hit causes your speed to be stuck at a certain point. Boy, am I glad they raised the Knots given by Full Speed and Ramming Speed.

Dockwrecker The Privateer 01-01-2010 09:56 PM

I should make it,until an hour ago I thought I may not be able to make it due to a large computer issue,but I should make it,I can't miss this award or event!

Capt Seafury 01-01-2010 10:11 PM

Due to technical issues, I can't be there. reinstalling the game didn't help, it made it worse.
There is always "a problem with updating pirates of the caribbean online."

EDIT: Okay, I might make it, but I don't know how to find screenshots on a mac, so I won't get the award. (maybe)

Sarah 01-01-2010 10:16 PM

See you all soon!

goldenplunderer 01-01-2010 10:25 PM

I hope more people are coming.

I'll be in the galleon " Wind-racer Tiger "

P.S. capt seafury just google how to do screenshot on mac

My ISP picked This very moment to go back to its old wicked ways. They Still believe that 156 KP/S = 10 MB/S.

I think they are owned by the EITC... Wanted to be there too...

CarribeanThunder 01-01-2010 11:18 PM

Dude, really, this is an event, not an actual SvS battle.

Guys, please, just stop shooting each other.

Also, guys, try to fill in spaces. If this were a real wall, a Ferret could pass through.

AND STOP PUSHING!

JM Ohara 01-02-2010 12:21 AM

Seeing as how I was trying, very unsucessfully mind you, to run 2 ships at once, I only got one really nice screenie. But it is a beauty.

http://www.piratesonlineforums.com/g...eenShot007.jpg

Had a lot of trouble running two, will not be doing that again.:laughks2: The Navy and my lappy didn't like either of me, and I lost you guys at PDF. :sadmh9: Had to repair an rejoin at PR. Made the blockade though!:pirate2: Wasn't quite as big as the July, but impressive none the less.

wmah 01-02-2010 12:33 AM

TheHawke so you ran it twice on same laptop? That is hard enough on a desktop with two screens I can't imagine doing it on a laptop with one screen.

I ran too ships using my desktop and a laptop. Much easier to do. I actually run two almost every time I am playing.

JM Ohara 01-02-2010 12:42 AM

Yup, same lappy. Uh, that's why I had such bad lag an had to drop a pirate. I have no trouble doing two on land, and can do two on the same ship, but trying to do two on different ships..... Uh, let's just say this. If either the Savage Dragon War Frigate, or the Storm Sail Hawk Frigate smushed you, sorry bout that, trying to keep out of everyone's way with 2 on one set of controls takes a bit of fenagaling. Didn't intend to flatten anyone there. :D

Chris 01-02-2010 01:00 AM

Here are some pics too lazy to upload them to photobucket :P

Sarah 01-02-2010 01:31 AM

Thanks for the fun! (except those that thought it was fun to sink me...twice...) I'll get my screenies up soon! Thanks Tep! Happy New Year!

Jeanne Stormcutter 01-02-2010 01:45 AM

Please do these more often! :)

The Skirata Clan 01-04-2010 09:53 PM

Here's a Guide. It even has instructions for Mac users.

Tuefenhandel 01-04-2010 10:46 PM

Looks like everyone had a good time - Well Done!

Unfortunately, the women-folk who chair the social committee and scheduling sub-committee failed to advise me that they had planned a full day for New Year's. The best day of college football (and, a little plundering / mayhem POTCO style) just isn't the same when you have to watch it on TiVo.

Johnny Storm 01-04-2010 11:39 PM

Thanks Skirata, but maybe ill post it in the gallery, will i still get a award if it is in the gallery?

Chris 01-05-2010 12:29 AM

Have all the awards been given out? If so i never received one, If not no hurry just wondering.

OK then, at least you are honest. Take your time Ma'am.

Dockwrecker The Privateer 01-05-2010 02:08 PM
