I'm a big fan of the Fate RPG System and I am going to use this blog to collect my thoughts about how to run a swashbuckling pirate campaign using it.
My goal is not to simulate real pirates, but rather to simulate swashbuckling as portrayed in film, and only fill in the gaps with reality. What this means is things like ships don't sink from cannon fire, fighting on the yards is just as stable as fighting on the deck if you are a named character, and there is always a rope to swing on that is neither too long, too short, or obstructed from reaching your destination.
