Royal Navy

The Royal Navy refers to the navy of Great Britain. It was the world's most powerful navy at its time. Not long after the discovery of the New World and its potential riches, the Royal Navy was soon dispatched with its many ships across the sea to expand England's influence and to protect its citizens and merchants doing business in the Caribbean.

The Royal Navy is a primary enemy in Pirates of the Caribbean Online and all of its units are identified by their red markings. Pirates venturing too close to a Navy soldier or ship will be subject to attack.

Navy Soldiers
Stationed at the various Royal Navy outposts across the Caribbean and aboard Royal Navy ships, these troops represent the might of the British Empire.

While many are just inexperienced youth fresh off the boats, there are a large number of well-trained and dangerous soldiers who won't show a pirate an ounce of mercy.

Bosses
Here are some tough Navy baddies you may encounter. They are much more vicious than their normal comrades.


 * Geoffrey Pain (Cadet)
 * Hugh Brandish (Guard)
 * Ian Ramjaw (Officer)
 * Nathaniel Grimm (Sergeant) - Thieve's Den on Tortuga
 * Sid Shiver (Veteran)
 * Sam (Veteran) - Fort Dundee on Padres Del Fuego

Navy Ships
Royal Navy ships are identified by their red markings and flagships fly red flags. They can be found in all areas of the Caribbean and will NOT hesitate to open fire on a buccaneer's vessel.

Light
These small craft stick close the safe shores of Port Royal.

Medium
Vessels of this class have been spotted in a wide range of places, but mostly to the West of Port Royal around Cuba, Rumrunner's Isle and Driftwood Isle.

Warships
These mighty vessels are dangerous enough, but they also shoot Firebrand rounds. A few of these ships have been spotted around Port Royal, but mostly closer to Padres Del Fuego and points farther East.

Heavy Warship
Only the bravest or most fool-hardy pirate engage these powerful vessels in combat. They shoot Firebrand and Explosive rounds. These ships have mostly been spotted around Padres Del Fuego and points farther East except Bastions which circle around Devil's Anvil and Tortuga.

Forts and Outposts
Large stone forts can be found on several main islands and stand to represent the Navy's power in the region. They house troops, defend towns and are located near jails to keep wrong-doers locked up. The Royal Navy also operates other sites in the Caribbean to maintain their presence.
