The longship sea battles are fast and furious - with a two-person crew, the gunner takes on a very important role. The captain has her (or his!) hands full steering and keeping out of harms way, leaving the gunner with the task of firing on anyone within range. The brigs are bigger ships, the RL pirate's preferred vessel - although two hands on deck can still manage her. The brigs have eight guns, so we need more gunners - if it takes your fancy, join the Jolly Bonny Anne group to be notified of battles, or turn up on: After the sea battles we have a melee wearing the SPD Melee system - available free at the dock before we sail. Its either boarding ships - an exciting fight to the death at close quarters on board - or we all head to the fort - breech the wall with our cannons before entering and dueling to the end - with swords, flintlock muskets and pistols (even the odd rolling pin has effective!).

Jolly Bonny Anne's battle
ensign pirate
flag The three crescents is a wicca symbol depicting feminist moon cycles & influences: wax, wane and full moon although a circle of full moon is not apparent amongst the many points projecting from this fearsome looking flag. Four eight-point stars, three crescent moons make the design & to make the flag cut out three curved triangles and one smaller triangle in black. The symbolism of the ship's name: 'Jolly' is a reference to the Jolly Roger, the flag of pirates of the 1700s. Anne Bonny was a famous female pirate who was jailed for piracy but released because she was pregnant. In prison she was visited by her lover Jack Rackman and greeted him "If you had fought like a man you wouldn't have to hang like a dog"
The battle cry of the Jolly Bonny
Anne pirate ship is Pirate's use their battle ensigns to enforce fear encouraging submission ~ Get this into your head! See this flag, be afraid!
Jolly Bonny
Anne
Her Majesty's Bark Endeavour pulls into Antiquity alongside SPD brigatine and a new corsair designed by Chase Speculaas - buy them here
ARRRR The Jolly Bonny Anne crew partied hard after capturing a nice galleon designed and built by Port Orbello totally full of Spanish gold & treasure she was!! Now we may be pirates and surely dont care for taking loot that was already looted ~ we swear next time we pass by the shores of South America we be payin the chiefs a visit and returning their sacred objects!

Antiquity & Jolly Bonny Anne
& Northfarthing Antiquity < awesome sea battles held on the waters of Antiquity, a showpiece simulation of life in a township in the 1700s and Victorian era. May '08 Northfarthing, a well known and active sim for medieval and pirate role play have just announced they have bought another sim which will be mainly water for sailing tall ships. Visit Northfarthing ~ I did ask DonPaul if he was going to hold pirate battles and he replied not at this stage although they do organise great dances in the taverns After the sea battles we have a melee wearing the SPD Melee system - available free at the dock before we sail. Its either boarding ships - an exciting fight to the death at close quarters on board - or we all head to the fort - breech the wall with our cannons before entering and dueling to the end - with swords, flintlock muskets and pistols (even the odd rolling pin has effective!).
