About New World Trading Company
Found a New World Trading Company
Choose where your company begins: Europe, the West Indies, the Americas or the East Indies. Each region has its own unique resources to harvest and trade with other players. Start with a small harbour town and a single ship, hunt down pirates and smugglers, and grow a trading empire, a mighty fleet and a magnificent port city of your own.
Hunt pirates and smugglers
Clear the sea lanes of pirates and smugglers and take on missions for the colony. Every victory earns the gold, timber and iron you need to buy bigger and more powerful ships.
Build a mighty fleet
Grow from one ship to a large fleet. Send your ships on trade runs and missions across the seas, sign trade agreements, and lead them into battle yourself.
Grow your port city
Raise docks, warehouses and a Town Hall, and watch a humble fishing village grow into a thriving harbour city. Every ship you bring home and every deal you close makes your port grander.
Naval battles in the age of sail
Command your ships in battles where wind and waves matter. Time your broadsides, rake the enemy's rigging and watch hulls splinter under cannon fire.
