The time is the early 18th century, an era of both magic and science, and the golden age of the Pirate! The British government has come up with a solution to two of their problems: enlist notorious pirate Calico Jack to help them turn his fellow pirates against the encroaching Spanish. But Jack has enemies of his own, and soon the Royal Navy finds itself facing off in deadly ship-to-ship battles against some of the deadliest pirates who ever lived... as well as some who didn't!
