When do we get one? How utterly amazing would a swashbuckling high seas adventure path be? I mean, everything is there: the Shackles pirates, the Eye of Abendigo, etc., etc... Plus everything Paizo releases is pure gold, and pirate adventures just scream epic.
Has this been considered? Please? Pretty please? Don't make me put the sugar on top...
I can imagine something maybe similar to Kingmaker, with PCs having the opportunity to become famous Pirate Lords of their own. That would be awesome.
I think Serpent's Skull is close enough (at least at the outset until it quickly spins off into the jungle/ruin exploration realm) that we are probably looking a ways down the AP road before they revisit anything like an entirely pirate focused campaign.
I agree though, getting to have 6 adventures of THIS would pretty much rock pants.

We already did one.
The third adventure path in Dungeon Magazine, the one we finished up one month before we started "Rise of the Runelords," was called "Savage Tide." Among other things (dinosaurs, demons, and associated mayhem), pirates were a HUGE part of that adventure path. Since we did so much with pirates in "Savage Tide," we've been somewhat reluctant to go back to that well anytime soon.
There's a few relatively minor pirate elements in "Serpent's Skull." But as for another full-blown pirate adventure path... it'll be quite a while.
I ran Savage Tide and it concluded recently actually. Definitely a great AP, and you'll definitely get your pirate fix.
Pirate roleplay freaks me out, wenches or not.
My wife is a huge pirate fan. I need to look into that AP. She'd be all over that like a fat kid on a cupcake.
Savage tide is ten kinds of awesome. Still hands down my favorite AP
Oh wow. Didn't know about Savage Tide, and my fiancee is a big pirates fan (and is an RPG convert :D). Just had a look and it looks like only the first issue of the AP is available as a PDF. I'm overseas, and buying the actual books is a bit (lot) more expensive - are they all going to be converted to PDFs any time soon?

Unfortunately, no. We no longer have the license to produce new PDFs of the magazines, and there's not really an easy way to get the entire AP as PDF as a result... or for that matter, in print, since we're sold out of a few issues. Ebay is probably the best bet, alas.
D'oooooooh

To me these are the BEST reasons for a full on Pathfinder Pirate AP.

I'll be honest we get teased with Piratey content here and there (Adventure 1-2 of SD, and Adventure 1 of Serpent's Skull) but no full-blown Piratey AP makes me a sad panda.
I for one would love to see an AP of Pirates vs. Empire (touching on themes of Freedom vs the Establishment). But I'm patient, and enjoying what I'm seeing so far.

Hehe. I'm content with tracking them down for now, but the thought of eventually having a pirate AP set in Golarion is very exciting. The whole Sodden Lands/Eye of Abendigo/Shackles area is just awwwesome.

We stopped STAP for summer break around 18th level. I kind of dislike the feel of pirates (yeah yeah, I pretty much hate those crap Disney movies). I have to say, though, the mid level adventures in this series are more than fine for a mini campaign and tromping around the Isle of Dread was the most fun I've had in my 33 years playing this game (including the first visit). Issues 142 to 145 are a must.
