Pirates of Nassau

About this board game

Pirates of Nassau is a board game for 3–5 players, with play lasting about 150 minutes. Set in the early years of the 18th century, it places you in Nassau, a notorious port and haven for pirates.

As a pirate operating from Nassau, you will seek out merchant ships traveling the nearby trade routes. Capture and plunder these vessels to gain the resources needed to strengthen your position and pursue greater notoriety.

Your pirate’s rise is shaped by several key activities:

• Capture and plunder merchant ships.
• Use your gains to improve your ship.
• Hire a motley crew of buccaneers.
• Build your notoriety while avoiding the Royal Navy.

Growing more notorious brings attention as well as influence. The Royal Navy is attempting to crush the pirates of the Spanish Main, and your increasing reputation will make you a target.

In Pirates of Nassau, success calls for skill, daring, and low cunning. Decide how to develop your ship and crew as you chase the title of the greatest pirate operating from this infamous port.
