Piracy

[Inverse Icarus]

oh, piracy in civ3. i thought you meant piracy of civ3, with razor. anyway.

i like the idea of comandeering goods. but do you actually get the resources? and do they get denied the resources? or do you just get money.

could you ruin a civ by placing privateers everywhere? and forcing them to break their resource related agreements?

is there a land-based pirate?

[Footie Mad]

Will there be modern age or ancient pirates then?

Maybe privateers can plunder trade routes, instead of using the naval blockade command. For example, if civ A is selling silk to civ B for 10 gold a turn, then my privateer turns up outside his port and 2 of his gold goes to me!
