Queen of Pirates
Take command of either the Qing Navy or Ching Shih’s pirate fleet, and try not to get outmaneuvered in the canals, hideaways, and treacherous cuts of the Pearl River.
Queen of Pirates is an intricate riverine wargame for two players, designed to simulate the campaign that Imperial China waged against piracy in the Pearl River Delta in the early 19 th century.
Piracy in the Delta had always been a historical thorn in the side of the Empire. Between 1801 and 1810, these Chinese river raiders were led by the charismatic and legendary Ching Shih, historically dubbed the “Queen of Pirates.”
