Hey guys, anonymousity here with a HUGE update! Well, our modelers and skinners have been busy at work trying to prepare our weapon skins and such.

A quick reminder on our playable sides, we will feature three teams; the wealthy Black Buccaneers, the undead Cursed Pirates, and the clever Cut Throats. Each side will have its own stregnths and weaknesses, but they all come down even in the end.
I'll start out with our pistols..
.


This pistol belongs to the Black Buccaneer team. It's a prototype pistol, equivalent to the power ratios of the modern day Desert Eagle. Only a team as wealthy as the Black Buccaneers can afford a pistol like this one.


The Cursed Pirate's have an easier way of dealing with unwanted shipmates. They simply blow 'em up to pieces with their Double Barrelled Flintlock pistol. It's primary fire allows you to fire one shot at once, it's secondary fire allows you to fire both shots at the same time.



Finally, the Cut Throat's have a speedier alternative when it comes to small arms. They prefer to use dual 'Forgotten Flintlock' edition pistols. Even though these pistols lack in power, they certainly make up for it in speed.

Pistols aren't all that are included in tonights update... we also have the Harpoon Gun!



We're thinking this may be one of the more enjoyable weapons in the game. In theory, the Manipulator/Anti-Gravity gun's coding can be used to allow the Harpoon Gun to have retractable arrow capabilities. What this means is- you can shoot an enemy with a harpoon, and bring him back to you using an attached rope! Hopefully that will work out as we plan it to.

And what would a Cut Throat be without his daggers?



Being both throwable and useful in melee combat, these double daggers are a Cut Throat's best friend.

Last but not least, we've finished the Rowboat!



This 5-man oar-powered ship will be included in all large vessels (for emergency and scouting purposes).

Our next update will hopefully show off our Whip, Muskets and some items and tools. Some news on our site as well... We have a professional website in the works, but we will be putting up a temporary PhPnuke site this week.

We are still on the prowl for Coders, Mappers and Character Modellers for those interested in working on our mod. Please send applications to anonymousity@mistmod.com with a breif sample of your work for review. Visit our forums at www.forums.mistmod.com if you get a chance as well.
