Release Information and Installation Instructions

Game Notes:
Loot and extort your way to infamy in the seedy world of the 17th century
Caribbean. Strike terror in the hearts of your victims: board ships,
ransom hostages and sack towns. The only rules are the ones you make.

Cutthroats: Terror on the High Seas makes you the captain of a ship
bristling with cannons. Seek a Letter of Marquee and fight for King and
country as a privateer or become a ruthless pirate. Either way, remember
to ply your crew with rum and treasure or face a mutiny. Will you survive
to retire a Pirate King? Or will you dance the hempen jig on Gallows Rock?

Game Features:

-- Purest real-time strategy pirate game ever created.
-- Massive background research and authenticity on subject matter.
-- Sophisticated environmental variables such as wind and weather.
-- Become the scourge of the seas as a blood-thirsty pirate or raid the
enemy in the name of King and country as a daring privateer the choice
is yours
-- Choose wisely, all of your actions have consequences in this
ever-evolving epic
-- Customize your fleet and armies as you prepare to fight on land and sea
-- 6,000,000 miles of oceans and land to terrorize with over 70 ports to
sack and pillage!
-- Prey on hundreds of intelligent non-player ships each with a different
role in the world; including trading, convoy protection and the
dreaded pirate hunters!

Ripped (but not RAPED): Animations.
