Pretty good. I mean, it's a bit anachronistic but no way will we do better than that before next update.

"I'm the Pirate King now... it's canon." Shoots him with a cannon.
"No more blundering around." Shoots him with a blunderbuss.

quote:
"I am no longer strong enough to wield her full power," he continues. "You are not the heir I'd have chosen there are others more familiar with the magic, with the fleet but we will need all the Lucayan can give us to keep San Alfonso free the Crown. Will you take on this mantle and become the next Pirate King?"
1. I accept the responsibility.
2. I'll join the fleet, but I don't want to be tied to that much magic!
3. I don't want to be Pirate King, or in his fleet, but I'll be an ally today.
4. I'll join the fleet, but I don't think this is the best strategy.
5. I shoot him.
quote:
ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED
El Rey del Mar: Become the Pirate King. (50 points)
He makes a cut in his hand with his sword cane, and the blood drips to the deck. "Then allow your blood to join mine, and you will become the vessel."
You nod, taking your cutlass and slicing across your palm. Your blood drips to the deck, and all at once the air is full of music: the sounds of the coquν frog, the cry of the howler monkey, the chatter of the vervet monkeys, the rocking of the waves against the beach, the melodies of reed flutes, the pounding of drums. They are the sounds of the islands in the Lucayan, and as they surround you, you feel the cave hold its breath and the ocean still. Then, swift as an exhale, power crashes into you, tropical breeze stealing your breath as it fills your lungs, the drums of the islands pounding in your heartbeat, the skitter of hermit crabs crawling over your skin.
You can feel it like an extra limb. The Lucayan stretches out beyond you, her islands living and breathing and becoming, even in places where metal and stone dampen her energy. You know at once that those contained spots are where the Crown has paved the streets, has brought its coats and corsets and carriages.
"I know what we need to do," you say.
1. Use the Galicia to lead the navy away.
2. Get back to my ship to distract the navy.
3. Have the Leσn lead the pirates of San Alfonso in an attack.

quote:
You hope.
1. Sail hard and fast and hope they take the bait.
2. Make our disguise so convincing that they can't help but chase us.
3. Hail the ships and taunt them so they follow.
quote:
You set your course for a northerly approach, making sure that points them in the direction of a port other than San Alfonso. The Sea Queen flies, sailing as well as you've ever seen her, as though the ship itself can sense your urgency. It takes a few hours before you see the line of Crown Navy ships, but there they are, just where you expected them. Tinima fills your sails, so that regardless of where the real wind is coming from, you've got a downwind heading, and you're moving knots faster than the navy. It doesn't take long until you're nearly upon them.
And then, you raise the Pirate King's flag. You tack, showing your broadsides, and just to make sure they're paying attention, you fire a load of chain shot into one of the outlying sloops. It's a bit of overkill given how much larger you are than the poor little sloop, but you figure if you're going to make a statement, you might as well give it your all.
The mainmast topples. You have their attention, all right. You change course, watching as their ships seeing your flag, and thus their believed target set new headings to follow you. It's a merry chase; for a few hours, every time you tack, the Crown fleet scrambles to track your course. You get too far away and have to adjust upwind to give them a chance to catch up, and then you're off again.
You're still playing with them when other members of the Pirate King's fleet begin to arrive. First a galleon, then a man-o'-war, then a pair of brigs. Assorted cutters and sloops support ships sail in the wakes of the larger vessels. All of them are armed to the teeth. And all of them are flying the flag of the Pirate King. You stop running and begin making the wide loop that will turn you around at the head of the gathering fleet.
There's that old joke Anne Read tells at the Lobo Negro, about the captain who asks for his brown pants: you're fairly certain that the commodore leading this Crown fleet is experiencing a similar sensation. It's a shame their uniforms have white trousers.
The battle doesn't last long, if only because the Crown ships realize they've been outmaneuvered. The cheers rise from the Pirate King's fleet, and soon the galleon sails alongside you, her captain a native man in his sixties, with crisscrossed scars from his forehead to his chin, who you suspect is the infamous Coamo Suerte hailing you for the news.
And so you explain what transpired with El Sabio. Suerte listens, his scarred face almost expressionless. "Change in the winds, lads," he calls out, his voice echoing eerily among the ships. Then he grins, and it might be sardonic. "Long live the King," he continues.
A cheer goes up from the crews, and if their captains are a little less enthusiastic than the sailors, they don't act against you. Your authority is unchallenged, for now.
+3 Fame
"Permission to sail back to San Alfonso to celebrate?" Suerte asks, and you have a feeling it's a test.
1. Granted. We'll show San Alfonso the strength of the Pirate King's fleet.
2. Granted, so long as they raise their own colors.
3. Better to stay clear of San Alfonso for now.

I think 2 would have them look more like a group of random people coming together to defend the island. And while (if I'm reading it right) that might make the crown react oddly, I'm voting:
3) Don't make the island a target again
