In 2007, StrikeNet Games produced a very limited print run of The Kaiser's Pirates, an exciting 1-4 player game of the commerce raider battles at sea during WWI. The game was quite successful (see reviews below) and quickly sold out the initial print run. Because we all want to see this excellent game reprinted and made available to a broader group of gamers, Designer Jim Day and GMT Games have agreed to create a GMT version of The Kaiser's Pirates. Note to P500 Customers: Most of the art for this game already exists, so we are in a position to move to production very quickly once the game receives sufficient P500 orders. The Kaiser's PiratesTM is a fast paced card game of gripping adventure on the high seas set during World War One. Players control some of Kaiser Wilhelm's ace German converted commerce raiders and light cruisers. Air Patrols were in their infancy and it was still easy to disappear into the vast expanses of the high seas only to re-emerge on another key sea lane. Players use their raiders in the traditions of the privateers and pirates of old to sink or capture as many Allied and neutral merchantmen as possible. Danger lurks everywhere but, in a desperate pinch, these ships can shoot it out with the British hunters. In its unique game play system each player commands both the German and British Forces as they scour the sea-lanes in search of their next merchant prize. The game rewards cunning strategy, and fast-action card play Solitaire players, Rejoice! The Kaiser's PiratesTM has been crafted to make solo play every bit as challenging and engaging as the 2-4 player version. So if you have no opponent available or are just looking to sharpen your game play strategies, try it solo. The Kaiser's PiratesTM solitaire version has everything needed for a game session of nail-biting fun!
