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, 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!).
It's a good band of brothers and
sisters that come along and crew on the ships - great friends at the
beginning & end of the battles and at the after party in the
pirate
tavern - but during the melee its every man, woman and child for hisself!

GaiaGirl's Photo & Media Studio
The Speculaas Design brigantine alongside the xebec corsair
As my Second Life friends know, I work as a photographer / journalist in RL & 2L and am happy to do a new profile portrait for you, photograph your event, party or fantasy situation, or work with a stylist to do a fashion shoot for that magazine feature or prepare your photos for a model competition ~ this is the website to collect photographs or order your photo session.
My
photographic studio in SL is well equipped, with hundreds of pose balls,
animations, backdrops, lighting and three stages: a portrait stage
with multiple backdrops, a model stage for large dynamic pictures
and a white cyclorama for easy photoshop pics (if you want me to
put your portrait onto any background image) – in other
words its well equipped to handle almost any assignment from
product photos to fashion shoots. The 1EarthMedia team is also available to build any item for your Second Life - from castles & palaces to telescopes & clothing. Our full time Second Life staff can also organise and promote your event or sim location - combining photography, machinima (inworld video & movie making), journalism and website design. Also, if you require a special build, we can go into the RL to make custom photos of buildings, vehicles and textiles to bring individuality to your Second Life item.
