Is there any chance that Pirates for 0.808 will have the same selection of fireams as the Call to Arms mod? (Found Here: http://forums.taleworlds.net/index.php/topic,20789.0.html)

Whenever I play it, I think to myself "How good would that gun be for fending off a boarding party?".

I might take a few from it but nearly all of them are way out of period and context. Any particular ones you like? They're also Greak Duke's I'll have to ask permission.

Well I figured most of them would be innapropriate, (Although, since when was this mod historically accurate?  ) but the rifles are pretty cool, as well as several of the pistols.

since you're into new stuff, I'd like to see a blunderbuss of sorts that does area damage - maybe you and hellequin can strike a deal

Don't worry, I've got that working. As well as a new lighter blunderbuss which has faster re-load but less damage and shorter range etc.

Right, I'll take a look and talk to greatduke about them.

Wait, you mean someone actually has AoE working? Awesome!

This mod is not about historical accuracy, aye.. but it should still retain a piratey atmosphere. You start putting in weird and wonderful guns and you loose that atmosphere.

And atmosphere is important, because it helps the characters to breathe.

Got it in one.

Suitable weapons from dukes pack:

Nock volley gun (used briefly by royal navy)
All single and double barreled pistols, muskets, rifles, shotguns and blunderbusses
As rare items flint revolver, flint pepperbox and percussion muzzle and breach loaders. All these are experimental weapons from late 18th and early 19th century, must be very rare and hugely expensive though.
