The Pirates are seafarers, and are a faction in ETW. They are unplayable without modding. An interesting faction, pirates can train only one land unit type, Buccaneers (swordsman), with a total limit of six. Generals are available to this faction as with all the other factions.
Pirates are at war with everybody, and generally hated for their disruption of trade routes. They possess a formidable fleet at the beginning of the game, too strong for any nation to take on initially without investing serious capital into a navy. However, pirate ships can make valuable prizes--especially their galleons.
