Hm, doesn't sound bad.

I'm looking forward to this! I hope it's as modifiable as it's predecessors as, I have to admit, every one of their pirate games since Sea Dogs has needed some hefty modding.

It's about time this one surfaced again. It has been a while. Usually when a title submarines in publicity (at least it has on this site) it means it's still a long way off. I'm skeptical on the May release, but that would be nice.
