Indeed. The great work of mr_lunch above who also kindly did the FAQ. But it's a nice option, even if one deserves a keelhauling for using it.

Avast ye mateys. This FAQ cleared up a few small issues that weren't agreed upon by all players like Villon's ability also we have played many games and found that we have been using the special weapons in merchant raids completely wrong thus making a big difference in how powerful pirate raiding has been in our gaming. Great FAQ for a great game. We look forward to the expansion.

Sorry, this is quite a basic question but following the reading of english rulebook, then the italian one of the just purchased translation of the game and facing them with a video example of play I'm a little confused: when a player decides to take a port action he can perform any number of actions in the port just taking care to give priority to sell goods and to do any action just once, or the quantity of actions in the port is to be considred in the limit of 3 actions per turn? On basis of video explanation it seems valid the second option.

One Port Action encompasses everything you do in a port.

There is no set limit on the number of different port activities you can perform while taking a port action, and no matter how many of those things you do during the port action it only uses up one of your three actions for the turn.

The video explanation may have had it incorrect.
