Arrrr! These here pirates be a bloodthirsty crew, but I'll learn them to stay in line, Spain would dearly love to have information on certain wanted citizens who've taken to thievery on the high seas.

Description

Tropico 2: Pirate Cove builds on the humorously addictive play of Tropico, and also adds in several innovations and changes to the rules. The economy is a reverse of the original: in Tropico you made money by selling stuff you made on your island. In Pirate Cove, you get rich pirating the goods other people have made. Plus you keep the captives too. Keeping the island economy moving falls largely to them. Captives from plundered ships do the hard work on the island, so the pirates can enjoy the delights of shore leave and re-supply their ships.

The pirates are characters you'll spend time developing, as you build up mean fighting crews with specialties in boarding, cannon fire, or harassment with muskets. Take Blackbeard, Anne Bonny and a host of other buccaneers through a campaign spanning 100 years of piracy in the Caribbean.
