Story
The city of Tak, at the northern end of the Inland Sea, is the greatest den of thieves, pirates and cut-throats that the civilized world has ever seen. In this city of scum, there are two pirates infamous for their ruthless greed, their daring raids and their countless skirmishes with death. One of these villains is Abdul the Butcher. The other is YOU
Only one of you can be King of the Pirates. A wager is laid, a race is on. But which of you will win?
In this book, the reader takes on the role of the captain of the pirate vessel Banshee. The story begins with a contest between the reader and his or her most powerful rival pirate, Abdul the Butcher. Each will take a ship across the sea to the isle of Nippur. Whoever makes it to the destination within the fifty day time limit with the most gold will be declared King of Pirates. The book includes rules for combat between vessels.
