nice game, poor review
why do they let some guy who obviously likes action games test a trading simulation and write a review about it? (talking about this: http://www.jolt.co.uk/index.php?articleid=2473 )

exactly my point. and that 'really have to work for it' takes maybe 20 minutes, for a game that you can play for 50-100 hours or more thats not really much.

Re: nice game, poor review
From the screenshots I've seen, it's a pretty close rendition to the original Pirates game.

Re: nice game, poor review
its a mixture of pirates and 'patritian' or whatever the english version of it is called (that hanse-in-the-baltic-and north-sea-game, if you know that)
ascaron makes some nice games, also they dont seem to have any own ideas at all. before this they published sacred which is more or less a diabolo-clone, but still nice to play

Re: nice game, poor review
I've rediscovered Uncharted Waters 2 recently. Worth playing if you like the whole Pirates / Elite-at-sea thing.
