very good but still needs work
ok the main problems i am seeing here are that its very hard to get gold.
the only ways i know are to destroy other ships .... but that takes time to find them.
you might consider adding into the game a small trade like mission/game to gain gold.
eg: in town A enter tavern and transport goods to town Z for .... 400 gold or what ever.
another thing to consider would be, if i attacked a town with 50 guys, but it had 400, then what ever they lost should remain gone, or re appear in so much time like a month or 2.
you have done very well on this game and i hope to see more from you ASAP
