Man O’ War: Corsair is a video game of high adventure, naval combat and exploration based on the Games Workshop classic Man O’ War table top game. Play as a rogue Captain of the Empire or Champion of Chaos, personally navigating your vessel in third person across the Great Western Ocean while plundering enemy ships, visiting ports, trading and making legends of your deeds across the land and sea! Engage in boarding actions, with direct control over your Captain and take the fight to the enemy.

In Man O’ War: Corsair, players will explore a vast continent featuring over 50 unique ports. Featuring customisable characters, fleets of sailing vessels, cannons, spells and mystical creatures all clashing on an epic scale, but beware the very waters beneath your bows…

Here there be monsters....

"We're really excited about our new update," said James Carroll, Director at Evil Twin Artworks. "We have wanted to bring out more of the elements that make the Warhammer world what it is, we felt it was time to bring the Dwarfs and Skaven to the Great Western Ocean. Not only that, but we are beginning to introduce the different colleges of magic, as well as allowing players to launch flying monsters and shoot flying enemies from the sky with unique and bizarre anti-air weapons.”

Update 0.4 - Warhammer Dwarfs! Skaven! Flyers! Magic!

Amongst the highlights are the introduction of the Winds of Magic, now you can hire Magic users to do battle, as well as two new races to encounter in the ocean! Meet the Sinister Skaven and the diminutive dwarfs! As if that wasn’t enough we have introduced Flyers and Anti-Flyer weapons to take them out with!

• Magic: The winds of magic blow strong, and wizards make their first appearance, both on ships and in their wizard towers scattered across the Old World! The flame-wielding wizards of the Bright Order and the weather masters of the Grey Order will join you for a price, while brutish Orc Shamans and devious Skaven Grey Seers plague the seas.
• Flyers: Watch the skies for the noble Bretonnian Pegasus Knights, fierce Imperial Griffon Riders, and the vicious Orc War Wyverns as well as squigs.
• Anti-Flyer Weapons: Refit your ship with a Hellblaster Volley Gun or a regiment of deadly archers to see off threats from above.
• Skaven: Rumour has it that the Skaven have taken to the seas, in their flame-spewing Warp-raiders, toxic Deathburners, and dreaded Doombringers - each swarming with the vile creatures, as well as the occasional Rat Ogre.
• Dwarfs: The mighty steam-driven fleets of the Dwarfs have sailed out of Barak Varr, including the resilient Monitors and Ironclads, immense Dreadnoughts, and the ingenious Nautilus submarines.
