The setting for this game is British Colonialism and Piracy in the late 17th and early 18th century, with a fantasy spin. Real-world maps of the period and some historical research will go a long way to helping you understand what it going on, but things will not always be as they seem. Magic and firearms are equally common-place. Imperial warships rule the seas, dragons rule the skies, and people wearing extraneous goggles and decorative gears are shot on sight for excessive anachronism. With the existence of magic and monsters, some trappings of medieval fantasy are still quite prevalent--most notably the use of swords, shields, and armor for dealing with such threats.
