Introduction to Cursed Winds
You take the helm of a pirate vessel. Gusts fill your sails and push you across open water. Rival ships appear on the horizon. You level your cannons and unleash a thunderous broadside. You sink each target. Then your crew boards the wreck and hauls off chests of gold.
Combat demands quick decisions. You steer through rolling waves. You load each cannon and line up your shot with care. You pick the right moment to vault onto an enemy deck and fight alongside your crew. Gunpowder reserves run low after every exchange. Crew morale shifts with every clash.
Plunder from sunk vessels fills your hold. At friendly ports you swap torn sails for fresh canvas. Iron plates bolt onto your hull to stop heavy shots. You trade older cannons for new designs. New cannon upgrades punch through reinforced timbers. Each upgrade boosts defense against broadsides and improves handling in rough seas. Your growing power draws larger fleets into battle.
