Arrrgh Pirates!

[Vile]

Have to agree there with Simlasa - I can't think of a single BRP supplement I'd rather buy than this, but the name ...

I quite like the name... :thumb:

...although it very much evokes a very humourous type of gaming as noted, so may not be desirous if the book is intended to look at piracy in a more serious vein.

If aiming for a PotC-type game I have to say I think it isn't neccessarily unfitting.

Playtest Document One is on the playtest subforum, I'll send notifications and e-mails out today.

(...)cause most likely I'm the only one of this opinion... but I kind of hate the name you've chosen... 'Arrrgh Pirates!'
I like pirates games as much as anyone but that name just sounds silly to me(...)

I agree with Simlasa. It sounds very tongue-in-cheek and also too reminiscent of the upcoming AFMBE supplement Argh! Thar Be Zombies, for which that kind of tongue-in-cheek name seems far more appropriate.

Other than that, I am interested. Will this contain any material facilitating using it with CoC?

There is a small amount of material in the Campaigns section, but a CoC Pirates book would be a whole separate monograph. This is something I am considering, but my writing schedule is full for now (a very good thing).

Of course, the BRP is compatible with CoC, so you could use almost all the material. I might put in an appendix converting the new professions into CoC occupations, but that's dependent on getting the rest of the document finished.

I have to agree with all those who dislike the name.

Actually Sails on the Horizon sounds fine to me.
