This is so fun. I just love the business and strategy elements. One of my all time favorite RTS games. GET PATRICIAN 3!!
I didn't quite like how it was "illegal" to buy swords. Oh please, you need swords in the game, why make it so hard to find them and get them? Captains are too hard to find too.I found out how to get swords good, BOARD PIRATE SHIPS AND TAKE IT FROM THEM.
If you love RTS and business hybrid games, I recommend this. this is the best one I have found yet.
GET PATRICIAN THREE!!!!! IT IS A LOT BETTER.
I had to stop playing because my business got so huge I could no longer manage it. All of my ships need me to manually repair them. In patrician III, they repair themselves (or so I understand from my friends). It became a boring fix them up. I can't just let these ships do their own thing.
