It's similar to an Invasion, in that you have to sink all the ships to end it, but it doesn't have the same concept.
1: There are only 5-6 ships ( 4-5 EITC Tyrants ( War Frigate - Lv69-71 ) and the one Ship Of The Line ( Same design as the Goliath - Lv79-81 ). These ships are usually in one area. Check your Map ( I call it the Sea Chart ), and look for the red line that appears when you get an announcement saying the EITC Expedition Fleet has set sail.
2: The EITC Tyrants are extremely dangerous - more so than your Ship Of The Line ( Leviathan, Conquerer, Intrepid, etc. ).
*These guys can shoot much farther away than any normal ship possibly could, and they do a TON of damage. They take some time to take down, but you'll manage it.
*The EITC Tyrant is basically a much more powered up version of the EITC Juggernaut, in that it has Firebrand as the upper deck cannons, and Explosives as it's Broadsides. Take them down quickly.
*The EITC Tyrant will move quickly, even without it's sails. If you want a clear shot at it, worry about taking out the front sail only so that you can fire at it without the Front Sail being in the way. Otherwise, shooting the other sails will be a waste of ammo.
*Be warned: Shoot any of the group of 5-6 ships, and they will all attack you.
*The EITC Tyrant will shoot at anyone who fires at them, and their shots become well spread out if they have multiple targets - making the sea a pirate-themed shoot-out between the Pirates and the EITC.
*If you sink the Ship Of The Line before all the Tyrants are down, a random Tyrant will get the treasure of the Ship Of The Line ( you'll know who has the treasure when you see a symbol of a Royal Chest above the ship ).
3: The Ship Of The Line will take very long to sink, so assemble a large crew of some good cannoneers, and hope that there are others sailing nearby to help destroy the SOTL and the EITC Tyrants.
4: As far as I know, the Ships Of The Line, which are the EITC Leviathan, EITC Conquerer, and EITC Intrepid, have different types of ammo. From what I've seen with the [Conquerer or the Leviathan], it only used it's broadsides, which are apparently like the Upper Deck cannons, in which they are quicker than the broadsides.
5: As you might or might not know, our enemy is Lord Beckett, even though he himself has no appearance like Jolly Roger does.
