Island

From Puzzle Pirates

An island is a Puzzle Pirates mini-world. There are many islands in each ocean, and you can whisk between islands using ferries, ships, whisking potions, and the 'To Home Isle' button on the Ye panel.

Islands can have shoppes, inns, palaces and forts, and many other things too.

Islands are classified into three sizes, which determines what may be built upon them. Buildings include infrastructure buildings (commodities market, bank, estate agent, bazaars, and fort (or palace)), and shoppes.

From smallest to largest Island sizes are:

[edit] Outpost island

An outpost island is a small island large enough only to support a small colony. When an outpost is colonized, only a fort and one regular shoppe may be built there.

If a new flag takes control of the island, both the shoppe and the fort change ownership.

[edit] Medium island

A medium island can have any infrastructure buildings, and up to four trade buildings. A bazaar is required before a shoppe of that kind can be constructed.

If a new flag takes control of the island, all the infrastructure buildings and bazaars transfer to the victors, but shoppes remain in the hands of current deed holders.

[edit] Large island

A large island can have all of the infrastructure buildings, and as many shoppes and bazaars as may fit on the island. Like medium islands, a bazaar is required before a shoppe of that kind can be constructed.

If a new flag takes control of the island, all the infrastructure buildings and bazaars transfer to the victors, but shoppes remain in the hands of current deed holders.

[edit] Changing an island's classification

If a flag controlling an island gets Nemo to specifically approve it as being large enough via a formal process, they may opt to change the island to a larger size for a 500,000 PoE fee.[1]

[edit] Historical Notes

Prior to the clarification of size changing rules, Nemo's permission and a 200,000 PoE fee were required. [2]
