Captain Peg Leg Davey and his first mate Red
Roxy, have enjoyed a prosperous run of
geo-piracy. For several years they have pillaged and plundered
treasure caches throughout the geo-sea. They've discovered many a
secret hide and even placed some of their own treasure caches.
Alas, they have become rather complacent of late and have not
attempted any truly ambitious acts of piracy. So, after many
peaceful days spent ignoring the mischievous rumblings in their
pirates' bones, Davey and Roxy could hold out no longer and have
set their sights on the Spanish Treasure Fleet.
The Treasure Fleet is a convoy of ships that
carry tools, and Spanish immigrants to the colonies, and bring
gold, silver and other exotic goods back to Spain. These treasure
laden ships run heavily armed and are always on the lookout for
pirates and other enemies of Spain, but a crafty
geopirate can certainly outsmart
them!
After doing their homework and carefully
planning their attack, the Two
Geopirates crossed paths with the famed
Treasure Fleet on an otherwise peaceful summer afternoon. Steer
your geovessels towards the posted
coordinates and ye shall find yourselves in the very waters where
the battle for Spanish Treasure took place. Through matchless
ingenuity, Peg Leg Davey and Red Roxy managed to destroy no fewer
than three galleons, and so great was the resulting
haul, that the Two
Geopirates couldn't load all the swag
aboard their own ship! In order that other geo-pirates should
prosper as a result of Davey and Roxy's good fortune, they have
hidden caches at the very sites where each Spanish ship was sunk.
As ye search the wrecks for gold just
remember, many a brave sailor lost their
lives at this spot so respect their restless souls and only
commence your hunt during daylight hours.
The second Spanish galleon to encounter the
crafty Geopirates was the
Encarnacion. After watching her
sister ship come under attack by Captain Davey and his crew, the
Encarnacionturned back to lend
aid. However, this found the Spanish ship sailing into the wind,
leaving her vulnerable to a small maneuverable pirate ship. Not
long after engaging the Two Geopirates,
Encarnacion was fatally holed.
She went to the bottom of the sea and carried most of her load of
silk and spices with her. Nevertheless, Peg Leg Davey and Red Roxy
did find some gold and gems among her stores. So, while the
treasure chest they left behind may not be large ye may still be
rewarded. Do be sure one of the shore
party carries a writing implement to the
hide or ye won't be able to show the world that ye played your part
in the looting of the Treasure Fleet. If ye be lucky enough to find
this cache first, ye shall be rewarded with your very own pirate
ship – perfectly outfitted for treasure hunting. Now, weigh anchor
and enjoy the hide!
