Spotlight on the New Brig - December 21, 2011
 

Speed, strength, and a good belly for plunder are all hallmarks of this handsomely crafted new vessel.
When the Shipwrights went about creating the new Brig class ship for you, they used the perfect mix of all the other Pirate ship types on the water. A “jack of all trades” to make even Jack Sparrow envious!
If you’ve ever thirsted to captain the Black Pearl or even the Queen Anne’s Revenge herself, this seaborn beauty is very similar to those legendary ships.

The Brig is a true Pirate’s ship, finally giving swashbucklers a fighting chance against the enemy Ship of the Line and deadly Bounty Hunters alike. Instead of armor in only certain areas, the Brig’s shielding is evenly distributed all around her.
The Medium Class and War Class Brig ships are also fully customizable, allowing Pirates to increase and strengthen any of its strong suits to better fit yer seafaring style.

If ye haven’t yet captained a Brig class ship, see yer local Shipwright and command the seas today!

I love how everyone thinks the BRIG is new, it's the Black Pearl with tweeks. POTCO was to lazy to make a new ship. So the copy/pasta, and tweek it. -_-

Of course, since their program is a decade out-of-date, they don't know a lot of developers who continue to use a broken game engine to create business-qualified games. I'm sure they can find close to no one to develop with the engine on Panda 3d; in their area at least.

But, hey, at least the basics got something (including me).

I needed something bigger to use during my wait for " real patches ".

I would have to disagree. The Brig looks like an entirely new ship to me (well, not entirely given my love of history, but it is not as similar as you would make it out to be).

Model-wise, the ship may not be "new;" but it's still technically new in the sense that pirates can now buy the ship for themselves.
