Release Notes:

The Skid Rowdies are looking new blood to fill up the ranks.
We're a professional team of dedicated sceners with big mark
under sceners. We believe on the ground idealism of the root
of the real old school scene. We do all this for fun and
nothing else. We don't earn anything on our hobby, as we do
this for the competition and the heart of what got the scene
started in the mid eighties.

If you think you got something to offer, then don't hold back
on contacting us as soon as possible.

twice the fun   \/ double the trouble

On with the game release information:

Fans of East India Company now have the chance to experience
the darker side of naval trading and combat with this brand
new  expansion, East India Company: Privateer.  Players will
get to take on the role of a ruthless seafaring privateer,
motivated solely by a thirst for fortune and holding
allegiance only to those who will pay for their services.

Players will operate their own fleets, commanded by merchant
or privateer captains, with the goal of accumulating as much
wealth as possible and by any means necessary. Though it
offers a limited timeframe, Privateer is more mission-oriented
than the original game, as players free of allegiances can
embark upon such missions as smuggling, blockading ports, and
hunting down ships bearing diplomatic envoys.

Two Privateer campaigns set in different time periods.

Two new multiplayer modes: Breakthrough and Beehive.

New goal-oriented gameplay with several new mission types:
locate and either sink or capture enemy ships, blockade enemy
ports, or escort friendly fleets.

New commander skills to fit the life of a privateer, such as
"False Colors," which allows the player to get close enough to
ambush the victim, and "Critical Hit," which gives the player
a chance to hit an enemy ship's magazine, causing the vessel
to explode.

New specialists, such as the surgeon, cook, constable, and
marine officer, who can be used to boost the abilities of your
fleets.

Install Notes:

1. Unpack release
2. Mount image or burn it
3. Install into your East India Company directory
4. Copy the content from the SKIDROW directory on the DVD to
your installation directory and overwrite
5. Play the game

Additional Notes:

This expansion requires East India Company installed + all
updates.

We also included together with this expansion, the brand new
Designer's Cut edition.

This game gave several of our testers several different types
of strange problems. Some had to downgrade to older graphics
drivers in order to get the game to work.

Others did fix the problems by deleting the files in their
Documents\East India Company\ directory.

Update any other driver and install the new DirectX, included
with this title.

Remember to buy, if you like this game!
