1. The Navy are too scared.
2. The Navy don't have good weapons.
3. Only Port Royal is defended, and even if they were to help they would be about zero help because of how weak they are.
4. Honestly, the Navy want pirates to be dead from Jolly Roger's Invasions, as they actually stay out of the forts.

Unfortunately thats so so true Dog, they are just too weak, maybe a new update could come with Navy people that are actually challenging.

One question.

Would the navy honestly want to team up with us pirates?

This is what leads to my question: Why bother defending?

They should have EITC/Navy Invasions. Bunch of Officers & Assassins with multiple bosses like Remington, Neban etc.

The Navy is on the islands to defend the places, not to conquer them. Simple as that. There should be no Navy invasions, it wouldn't make sense.

The EITC aren't the type to do an all out open invasion. They would do slow takeovers involving assassinating certain individuals.

Now you are just over-analyzing.

Tortuga is a pirate island unlike Port Royal. Not controlled by anyone. Wouldn't it make sense if the Company or Navy wanted to drive the pirates out of their main stronghold?

The Company isn't the type to just go and destroy something with 10 billion troops armed with swords. They quietly work away at things until they crumble from inside. Thats why the EITC won't do an all out invasion.

Also, the Navy are lazy. Its shown countless times in the game. Not only are they there to protect rather than attack, they are just too lazy to do anything. I'm sorry mate, but I really don't think there should be EITC or Navy invasions.

I'd have to agree with Davy.

Let's think purely in the scheme of the Caribbean. Think of it as real, with the motives and the moves of each group in the Caribbean. It's like chess. Each player has their own style of moving.

Here, we have Jolly Roger; He has strength through his army that is forever growing. He is not afraid to use it. Roger relies on brute force to get his job done, so that his army continues to grow and grow and grow. All he wants is to rule.

The Navy is there because they are ordered to be there. They protect the King's investments in his Empire. They don't have to do anything else; technically, they already rule. All that's in their job description is to strike down anyone who disturbs the peace and threatens that rule.

The EITC are rather like the Navy, but with a more sinister edge. They work for money. They will work undercover to get what they want, not through brute force. If they were to work through force, and force alone, they lose their money and their power. There's no more influence for them to work.

Now, back to the original question: Why doesn't the Navy fight with us? Because they don't care. Pirates are getting killed off? Brilliant for them, there's a lot less work for them now. As long as they have their legal power over the islands, they don't care, go about your merry way. All they need to do is keep the King happy.
