Bibliography

Belatedly it occurs to me that I haven't made a decent compilation of materials available to support a Skull & Bones campaign. To remedy that, please refer to the following list. These are items that I've purchased, and I can attest to the quality of the different products.

Skull & Bones Rulebook
http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=19330&it=1

This is, in my opinion, the best set of rules for a historical pirate campaign available.

Corsair Supplement
http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=2593&it=1

This book presents more detailed rules for ship-to-ship combat; one of my favorite elements is a detailed set of deck plans for a brigantine.

Buccaneers & Bokor E-Zine

I'll admit a bias in favor of these issues, given that I had articles in issues six and seven. Still, I loved the fact that all content was OGL, and they presented a lot of useful material

0one Games presents some excellent maps, including the two listed below.

Pirate Ship

Also, it's been brought to my attention that Dragon Magazine Issue 318 has articles about pirate-themed campaigns and the city of Port Royal, with the latter featuring a nice full-color map.

The Cabin Boy's Pocket Pirate Hand Book is a nice PDF packed with information about life aboard a pirate ship.
