Pirate Havens

Pirate Havens be a good place fer pirates to sell goods for better prices n' get cheaper prices at taverns n' brothels.
Captains that sail to a Pirate Haven every 6 hours earn a reward n' a speed bonus fer the ship!
Markets at pirate havens do not sell goods, but sell random curses that can effect the game world.

Curse	Effect
Decay	Ages pirate ye specify a random number of years
Destruction	Damages another ship for an hour (or until they repair it at a port)
Expel	Sends another ship to a random location
Imprisonment	Traps a pirate fer 20mins
Plague	Infects a pirate with a disease (will be infected or will have to pay doubloons if under the diseased level)
Shift	Teleports your own ship to location of your choice
Zonbiness	Turns a pirate into a zonbi

Raidin' Ports - Ye can raid ports to earn doubloons, treasure maps, items, n' rewards. Ye cannot raid ports whose factions are friendly to ye. Neutral n' hostile factioned ports can be raided. The crew or Captain can raid one of these ports n' will be asked upon arrival to the port.

The longer a port has not been raided (see the table above), the more loot you will receive when raiding it.

There are 3 different sized ports and vary in difficulty. Towns are the easiest, cities are harder, and strongholds are the toughest.
The tougher the port, the more doubloons that will be rewarded.

A crown (Dutch, English, French, Spanish) will pay extra to have an Independent port returned to them. Do this by raiding the port and installing one of their governors.

Pay attention to the game world news when a port is:
reinforced with soldiers, it will be tougher to raid
gold is discovered or trade flourishes, the port will have more doubloons
is infected with a disease, the port will have less doubloons and defenses

There are two different raids for ports:

RNG - The old system which the winner will be determined randomly

Interactive - A new system that requires the crew to perform actions to keep the ship afloat, rig sails, steer the ship, n' attack the port.

Thar be three sizes o' ports: Towns, Cities, n' Strongholds. Towns are the easiest to raid, n strongholds be the hardest. Towns will be poorer than cities n' strongholds which will result in less booty.
If your ship runs out of time then the raid will end and your ship will sail to a nearby port or cell.
If your ship gets at or below 10% HP, your ship will automatically retreat.
Cooldowns are variable and are based upon what command you use.
Ports can be rendered offensively disabled by taking out all their cannons or when less than 10 soldiers are available

Interactive Raid Commands	Action
Load	Loads a cannon. Type of ammo can be specified and more than one cannon can be loaded
Fire	Fires a cannon
Patch	Repairs the ship
Rig	Unfurls (lowers) or Reef (raise) sails that will change the amount of time you have to raid the port. Based on what direction are you sailing when you steer
Shore	Repairs the ship
Steer	Lets you choose to advance or retreat from the port. This will change the time you have to raid
Shoot	Uses your gun to shoot at soldiers at the port

Note: Below are the default ports n' factions that control them. Captains can change the faction by attacking hostile ports n' installin' a governor or durin' a war, a faction can take over a port.
