Shogun 2: THE BLACK PEARL?

Well now that I've got your attention, you're likely to have noticed a slight typo in the title that appears a tad sensationalist.

It was a genuine typo.

Srsly.

Anyhoo, I know this isn't a very good fleet but it was what was in the area at the time... I was just sailing south of Kyushu in 1555 and the Ship sailed in from off-map. I don't know if it appears randomly or at set dates but it was just there; no dialogue box or anything.

No offense to the person who made this video, but didn´t he knew about history of the 16th century?

If he did, he would knew that he should never face a portuguese ship of the 16th century. At the seas, we were badasses at that time.

@crocve First 5 seconds of the video answers that question ;)

[leeham991]

Do the Japanese ships sink at all or does the red bar go to zero and then they surrender?

[Henners1991]

@leeham991 If you see a thumbnail at the bottom flash blue, then it's sinking.

What  Portugal rules.....I thought so!

[duploman1000]

It's the black ship. It makes a ton of money for the europeans by exploiting japan's need of chinese silk. It'll be loaded with japanese gold and silver.

German ships were better at that time ... they were invisible.

im portuguese :D

[oldthrashbar]

@crocve America was still better during the 16th century. And yes, I do realize what I just said.

@duploman1000 if and then they have the English pirates steal the gold ...

You shouldn't sink it, it was made to capture because it's so powerful for one little ship. I never saw any other clan (on single player) go after it, not even to attack it. But it's not like you could conquer the game with just ships, but it is fun to use this ship to go in battle with. I remember going after this ship with a full army of ships and came out with two left. Sad thing is I ended up sinking it instead of capturing it.

@GirlCraft No we are not.  Thanks for the xenophobic remarks anyway, asshole.

[Tombking2]

@crocve Too bad you didnt accomplish that much during that time.

@Qusza2007 do you r stupid the portuguese cross is a real cross that have white squeres in the middle the spainish one have the lower part of the cross more longer . thats a portuguese ship

[MrPIROCAS]

@Qusza2007 ofc, ppl usualy dont see deep history and is not unusual to make portuguese and spain the same country

@Henners1991

Riiight... because wiki is sooo acurate source of information ._.

Truth is that Portugal area of influence in far east asia ended on Philiphines when Japan as the rest of Pacyfic island lands in SPANISH hands.

And yes, i admit my mistake when comes to "Black ship" origin but in matter of fact both Spanish and portugal used red cross crest on thier sails and that's why i thougth that this is Spanish ship.
