A Privateers were granted permission to become a pirate by their state to disrupte enemy trade. Far from a regular pirate.
This was mainly the case with Buccaneers, but more often they turned pirate - so that's why today the term Buccaneer is used to describe a Pirate in the Caribbean.

Watching 240 guys talk trash about cavaliers is like two retards having a slapfight over a sippy cup.
The Battle of Ain Jalut in 1260 shows us that there were firearms in the Middle Ages, so just because you didn't see a gun in Bravehart doesn't mean that guns were not in the Middle Ages.
The arabs came into contact with gun powder between 1240-1280
The first Cannons were used around that time too as well as Bombards.

...but I really don't see how they can develop a story when your character is used to pillage and rape. People will just run away when you come for a conversation.
Privateers.

It would be kind of hard to explain the reason which made a pirate abandon his sea life and come fight monsters on land... Although the reason could be as simple as "The pirates heard about some bad things that happened and decided to help" or something...lol
I'm actually favoring a Pirate class now that I've had plenty of time to think about it, but I wouldn't want it until the expansion.
I'm pretty sure we won't be traveling to the Islands in Diablo III - but quite possibly they can use the expansion and explain that the corruption had spread farther South into the Amazon Islands and *bam* Pirate Class.. although I doubt we'd play as a pirate, but instead a Privateer.
We have to keep in mind we are playing a hero class.
Privateers and officially licensed by their government to inact in Piracy.
Since Westmarch has a Navy there you go.
Don't know if I like the gun idea.. so that would naturally have to go.
Especially since it's been Official there will be no guns in Diablo III.
Also the artwork for the Islands and that gloomy coast line are on the Diablo III site.

To each their own.
Here's a pic I took a couple months back, I don't think I posted this here yet.
I used to have that mustache problem as well.
Heard somewhere that they were going to make a movie series out of it.
I would like to see that.
Sounds interesting.
I could always use another Pirate book.
