Pirates keen to improve their ships’ speed, defense and cargo holds are targeting enemy vessels with a vengeance! What do they seek? Plunder, mate, in these all
new materials needed for a ship-shape upgrade:

Canvas
A rough sail material, good for catching swift winds

Silk
Afiner, lightweight sail material allowing for even greater speed at sea

Steel
A trusty, basic armor material to protect yer hull

Iron
A refined, heavier armor material to repel deadly cannon blasts

Pine
A light wood for quick expansion of deck and hold

Oak
A heartier wood allowing for even greater cargo hold dimensions
The Navy and EITC greedily hoard these materials with a tight fist, fearful of the advantage they could mean for Pirates at sea. To ensure the safekeeping of these new goods, powerful
Bounty Hunters and Warships are often used to ferry this precious cargo from port to port – so man the cannon and prepare for battle!
NOTE: If your Pirate should fall asleep on deck while enemy ships are sunk, you will not plunder their loot. So look alive, sailor!
