07-30-04, 02:24 AM I'm thinking about putting together a pirate campaign but I'm not quite sure how to begin. Does anyone know were I can download a module.

07-30-04, 03:46 AM See if you can acquire Of Ships and Sea and/or Pirates of the Fallen Stars. Both are 2e products, but give you an idea of naval adventuring and piracy on the seas. The latter product details FR's Sea of the Fallen Stars.

For 3e/d20 material, check out Skull & Bones and Seafarer's Handbook.

07-30-04, 10:01 AM You probably want both Pirates of the Fallen Stars (http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=856&) and Sea of Fallen Stars (http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=821&). Also download (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/downloads) Lands of Intrigue for non-Inner Sea pirate lore.

07-30-04, 11:14 AM The Realms is home to many pirates. Depending on where you want to set your campaign, there are different sources to point you to.

Sea of Fallen Stars/Pirate Isles: "Pirates of the Fallen Stars" (2e)

Trackless Sea/The Nelanther: "Lands of Intrigue" (2e), available for free on the Wizards downloads page.

Shining Sea/Narubel: "Serpent Kingdoms" (3e)

Great Sea/Bay of Pirates: "Shining South" (3e, not yet released)

The Freeport series (non-WoTC) is perhaps the most widely quoted d20 pirate series. It is easily adapted to the Realms. You could drop the town of Freeport into the Pirate Isles, the Nelanther, or the Bay of Pirates almost without modification.

07-30-04, 03:45 PM I was really looking for free downloads of said modules. It's not as if the internet is void of places that offer these services. I'm just not quite sure were to go.

07-30-04, 04:41 PM You could also look into the Freeport series of modules. Many people are place that city on the eastern end of the Inner Sea. That is a great swashbuckling campaign to run.

There are also non-WOTC (3rd party) 3E products that detail ships and ship combat. One of them is the Book of the Sea (http://www.mongoosepublishing.com/d20/detail.php?qsID=345&qsSeries=14) , and the other is the Seafarer's Handbook (http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/llsh.html) .
