A pirate's head in a hat indicates your Shipmate. You can view a Captain's designation by opening the 'Captain's Log' tab at your Pirate Stronghold, or by viewing their Haven's information from the Map. Their designation may depend on your previous interactions, their Level, or their game history.

There are several different player designations for other Captains you will encounter in the game. All these methods allow you to use the following features:

You can perform acts of Piracy, conduct diplomacy, and engage in trade from the Pirate Stronghold, Brethren Court and Market, respectively. Alternately, you can perform most interactions from your Naval and Command Buildings.Īs you make more contacts (friend or enemy) you'll find that keeping track of them all will be easier from the Command Building interface than by scrolling on the map. Go to the other Captain's Haven, click 'Actions' on the right-hand menu and choose the action you want to perform. You can also interact by visiting their Haven. You can interact with your fellow Captains from the Map interface by going to the Map and positioning your mouse over another Captain's Haven and choosing an action (Trade, Raid, etc.) from their Haven's pop-up menu. To succeed you'll need to master all the different ways of influencing and engaging other Captains. Interaction between Captains will be the key feature of your gameplay experience.
