Things you're looking forward to doing

Actually I havn't heard anything about pirates, other then the small ign snipet that said there were alot of factions and they were interesting.

I wouldn't mind a pirate mod fleshing out the pirate factions. New ships, units, land, etc.

The carribean looks kind of small...(missing islands?)..so i'd like to see a full laid out carribean.

Hopefully pevergreen and his Vanilla Extended Mod will flesh out the Caribbean, but plenty of other mods will probably do so as well.

Pirates could be an extremely tactically challenging faction if done correctly, not to mention one with some wonderful units.

It would be fantastic to start off as a tiny Pirate Republic with an elected King and then try to raid, harass and otherwise annoy the major nations. And eventually take enough ships to go toe-to-toe wit ha real faction and take all of their land .

I think the mere fact I don't have to fight 3 fleets of 2000 ships like I did in MTW2 will be nice.
