RELEASE NOTES

"You are a seaworthy Corsair devoted to his nation!

Control the actions of up to 30 of your men in real time. You sail off to
conquer the new world! Overcome hoards of Pirates! Improve buildings such
as the lighthouse to see enemies further away

THRILLING ADVENTURE !
With different missions during which you sail around the Caribbean, the
Madagascar region, along the coast of Asia until you finally reach Austra-
lia. You will build and control an entire armada, fight in unfriendly
seas, win over new trading posts, negotiate with new territories for
personalenrichment, foil the plans of other nations, and overcome the
hoards of pirates sailing the seas. You will meet infamous people through
battles orbecause of their cruelty (such as Surcouf or the terrifying
Blackbeard).

Corsairs bears a remarkable graphics and gameplay similarity to SSI's
Buccaneer and Microprose's Pirates Gold, the sequel to Sid Meier's
original classic Pirates ! Corsairs is first and foremost a real-time
strategy battle-at-sea game, with significant pirate trimmings that
provide a realistic 18th century atmosphere.

You play the role of a privateer, heading your fleet while you sail the
oceans in search of a treasure. In the process you explore strange
uncharted territories, battle storms, navigate through dense fog, defend
against enemy galleons, board enemy ships with guns and swords, engage in
tough trading negotiations, recruit henchmen, dole out the spoils of war,
feed your crew, and stash away booty for yourself. While undertaking these
activities, you operate both out of loyal service to the King and personal
lust for wealth, just as was actually the case in real life. Corsairs
intends to be a true simulation, maintaining wherever possible accurate
details from the naval history of the period."
