The Piratez Mod is a total conversion mod for OpenXcom.The story is set in the far future, six hundred years after the so-called First Alien War (the events of the original X-Com game), which in this continuum was also the last: the Earth lost. The aliens subjugated the human population, thwarting all resistance using countries who allied with them, and turned most survivors into subjects, slaves, or worse. Our planet was turned into a fringe world of the immeasurable stellar empire, inhabited not only by humans, but primarily by all sorts of mutants, aliens and monsters, watched over by the mysterious Star Gods. Even though there are semi-autonomous countries on Earth, they have their hands too full to form any sort of coherent rebellion; and when they don't, they are more interested in plotting against each other than opposing their alien masters.The player takes control on a freshly formed band of female Ubers - a stronger, more resilient variant of regular humans - who decide to become rich and powerful criminals upon having found an abandoned hidden underground base of uncertain origins (possibly established by X-Com itself) after escaping from a research facility. First motivated by greed and anger, they gradually become (at least partially) freedom fighters, striking against the alien oppressors and their human lackeys, as well as protecting defenseless mutant communities and striking deals with local governments, who are not happy with being occupied. No matter the ideals or lack thereof, the game is mostly about looting, killing and enslaving, with a good dose of humor ranging from goofy to black - sometimes simultaneously.The mod is available for free here. | |

Hero Antagonist: Quite possibly the Jillsville folk, particularly Sky Ninjas. They appear to be as unhappy with the state of things as you, and they are said to worship spirits of light. However, religious and philosophical differences prevent you and them from ending the hostilities. In fact, they are the yang to your yin, which is the whole point of the general mindset of your culture. | |

Church Militant | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_2139c878 | comment |
Church Militant: The Church of Sirius (former Cult of Sirius) faction fanatically worships the Star Gods. They come complete with elite Reverends and Cardinals. This is also a bit of subversion, considering that the higher ranks of the Church consider Star Gods flawed and there's a fair amount of cynicism regarding their position. | |

Black Comedy | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_222dc873 | comment |
Black Comedy: The game doesn't shy from mentioning the less optimistic aspects of being occupied by tyrannical aliens and their human subordinates, often going into satire regarding real politics and social issues. Despite the themes (oppression, racism, colonialism etc.), it's still fairly light humor. | |

| Piratez (Video Game) / int_2a090d00 | comment |
The entire briefing to the Warehouse Wars mission: The omnipotent Traders run a warehouse in this area. If we 'ware' to strike it, we could turn their wares into warez. Dem dogs in guild colors are free targets to show off our prowess, but we can take some wh... wenches alive as warez too. Be-ware of them Guild Security, they're mighta be just oxen in armor, but that armor makes them very resistant to shotguns and lo-end pistols. Better to catch them un-a-wares and backstab 'em.

Awesome, but Impractical | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_2bdae2ae | comment |
Awesome, but Impractical: At one point, you get the ability to build tanks. Not the automated track drones, or even the automated flying drones; you can build real tanks the size of troop transport, with huge cannons and anti-gravity engines. Unfortunately, being a Sky Pirate, you have no practical need for them as weapons, as they are horribly slow when compared to supersonic aircraft you normally hunt. Selling them for money, on the other hand, is Boring, but Practical; if you wish, researching them allows you to switch from the exciting but unpredictable income from piracy to making most of your money as an arms supplier manufacturing and selling tanks. | |

After the End: The story takes place many years after a lost game of the first X-Com, and most humans have been turned into mutants. In fact, all of your pirates are technically mutants too, and terror missions are replaced by pogroms against mutants. | |

Squishy Wizard | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_38047858 | comment |
Squishy Wizard: No Gal will ever actually be squishy by human standards - even completely naked, their skin is as tough as basic human armor - but since they gain bonuses to Voodoo when wearing less, Voodoo-focused Gals tend to be comparatively much more lightly-armored than others. Endgame armor can avert this using things like forcefields (especially for the Grey Codex, which specializes in destructive voodoo users), but all forcefields are critically weak to at least one type of damage, and even the best such armor is notably more flimsy than comparable endgame armor for weapon-focused gals. Played straighter with the Bugeyes, who are natural master psychics but extremely fragile (and who lack access to any sort of serious armor that would help with this.) | |

Aliens Are Bastards: Downplayed compared to the original game; the aliens were bastards and came as conquerers, and earth is now their backwater colony, but most of the active aggression you face falls under Humans Are Bastards instead; additionally, some of the other alien races who have been colonized by the Star Gods can serve as allies. Played straighter with some of the lingering terror from the depths enemies and other pockets of alien monstrosity left on earth. | |

Blessed with Suck | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_3c3f28a5 | comment |
Blessed with Suck: Ubers are stronger and more resilient than any other race, they also learn super fast. These perks however are a result of their adaptation to metabolize Hellerium 511 which they need to intake at regular intervals (either by living in a Hellerium-irradiated area or by eating it), else they get sick and (usually) die. According to the Word of God, Ubers with Hellerium deprivation that do not die get lolified. Their appearance is quite misleading, since they are generally older, experienced adventurers who managed to survive far from home for years. | |

Vichy Earth | |

Vichy Earth: The planet was conquered long ago, and the various power blocs only continue to exert authority at the whim of the Star Gods. Not all humans are bastards, though: the game penalizes you if you kill or even capture government employees, workers and most civilians. They are honest folks that have nothing to do with the Vichy Earth regime. The global factions, however, have everything to do with it, and they are your main enemies. | |

Chainsaw Good | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_5caef4ca | comment |
Chainsaw Good: Some weapons added by the mod, of course. They don't scale all that well with your soldier's stats like other weapons do and they are kind of bad against armor, but early on there's very little that can survive an encounter with one and they don't exhaust you badly or require a sky-high strength to use. An actual name of one researchable tech. | |

We Have Reserves: Dead pirates are going to be a fact of life, because despite their physical superiority it's going to be a while before you can get guns worth a damn and armor that's tougher than the bare skin of your mutant girls. However, it's much less crippling than it was in the original XCOM, because you can construct training facilities capable of churning out moderately-experienced replacements at a steady clip, meaning that past a certain point you should never wind up being forced into fielding fumble-fingered rookies. | |

Mook Horror Show: An indirect case with the 'The Attack Of Violent Flare Females' article in the Solar Courier, which covers a typical raid mission observed from the enemy perspective. It focuses on how scary and overwhelming the pirates are, but also lampshades the typical player behavior of throwing light sources at random all over the place, which makes sense from the tactical perspective but probably looks puzzling in-universe. | |

Carry a Big Stick | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_6c07693b | comment |
Carry a Big Stick: One of your starting weapons is a nice sledgehammer. Once upon a time this was a very strong (but slow) early melee weapon, but the addition of the enemy getting an evade check makes it chancy to try to sledgehammer them anywhere but in the back lest your swing go wild and smash someone standing next to you. Hammers are still pretty close to the top of the food chain for busting down walls until you get access to better tools like Pickaxes and Fusion Torches. | |

Other mutants are also considered their own kind by the general population, even though they are wildly different from one another. | |

Arbitrary Gun Power | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_76a83c72 | comment |
Arbitrary Gun Power: Downplayed when it comes to pistols vs. rifles; since the game's paper-doll equipment for troops means that inventory size matters (making it easier for them to be stowed in quick-to-draw-from areas as a sidearm), smaller guns can be realistically lower-power than larger ones while still being useful, and all guns do damage based on the caliber of their ammunition. Played straight, however, between guns of the same category - each gun has statistics that are carefully-chosen to ensure that none obsolete any others that are anywhere remotely close to it in terms of accessibility. | |

Commonplace Rare: Apples. You need large amounts of them to make the most profitable early-game good, and will need more as you scale up production; and they can only be found at random, not purchased or grown yourself. While you can sometimes find them in large numbers, doing so is entirely up to the RNG, and even if you're lucky you're still certain to run short of them if you expand rapidly. Smelly rags. While they have almost no value, you need them for a few specific things, and they can't be purchased or intentionally acquired in any way, only found at random. There's even an event that hangs a lampshade on this by having the captain, frustrated at having a project that needs one for too long, grab a random rag and ask if it will do. | |

| Piratez (Video Game) / int_9136471a | comment |
Our Goblins Are Different: Although the game mostly avoids the term goblins, they seem to not only be called this (at least sometimes), but they seem to be pretty widespread around the planet. The most obvious goblin group is the Lokk'Naar tribe, which is the most immediate contact for the pirates. It is unclear if they are related to the Ratmen, or if they are mutants at all (as opposed to being an extraterrestrial race, for example). There is a mention that they were created by dragons, but it is unclear what that means. | |

Precursors: Heavily referenced by the Cult of Sirius as well as Deep Ones; presumably they were the ones to seed life on Earth, or at least direct its development since some point in time. It turns out that the Brain in a Jar on Mars and other similar specimen in the galaxy are the Precursors' direct descendants who abandoned their physical bodies as a mean of adaptation to a great war against the Inciters. Moreover, the ruler of T'leth is also a Precursor, but one with its body still intact. | |

Master of Illusion: The entire race of Star Gods, collectively. They are invisible, have attacks that bypass armor and are generally designed to be as confusing and hard to attack as possible. The Star Gods are the Ethereals, the master race from the original X-COM, they were infamous for their ability to mess with your minds even back then, and now they took several new levels in this skill. The player can be this via the Illusion school of voodoo, at least if they follow the Grey or Gold codices, which master it. | |

Happiness in Slavery | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_a58802b7 | comment |
Happiness in Slavery: None of the slaves you acquired rebel or even complain. However they are paid 10,000 dollars a month, and given living conditions usually far better than what they had before, making them most likely slaves in name only. | |

MegaCorp: The Traders Guild, in a way. They effectively control trade between the semi-autonomous states, since they're given freedom of movement around the planet. They also seem to possess significant industrial potential, as well as a whole army of well-trained mercenaries. The Eurosyndicate is a more straight example, although it's way less present in the game. | |

Healing Potion: A whole range of them, mostly based on alcohol mixed with E-511 radioactive residue. Not usually quite as effective or portable as expensive purpose-built medical gear, but pour enough booze into or onto someone and they'll be alright. Booze also has the significant advantage of being easily chugged by oneself, while all other methods of stopping bleeding need a friend to apply them for you. | |

Timed Mission | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_bb48f8ba | comment |
Timed Mission: Supply Ships blow up after a (random within a certain range) number of turns, forcing you to step on it and finish the mission quickly, or lose the entire precious cargo (along with any pirates who happen to be on board). From version 0.95 onwards, the mod features "combat stress", which is represented by the crew members losing some morale each turn, depending on their Bravery stat and armor worn. If several turns pass and you don't kill anyone (killing enemies boosts morale), the most weak-willed of your girls may start losing it. Alleviated in the next version, where morale gradually becomes equal to Bravery, but still may create a time limit for the girls with low Bravery (because their morale will finally drop to 10 or 20 and they'll start panicking). | |

A Nazi by Any Other Name: Taken to a comical extent with the Humanist faction, a human-supremacist group that holds mutant pogroms, dresses in what looks like Nazi uniforms, inexplicably wields World War II-era German weaponry, has leaders who all look exactly identical to Adolf Hitler, and flies ships shaped like giant swastikas. This game also has the Spartans, modeled on the American right-wing militias, who are... not much different from the Humanists. They also practice mutant pogroms, live in an authoritarian militarist society by outdated social mores. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Star Wars: Much of the Smugglers faction references the Millennium Falcon, with the leader modelled after Han Solo, the engineers somewhat resembling Wookies and Public Enemy being a shout out to Obi-Wan, especially how he appears in the Star Wars Gangsta Rap 3. Doom: There's a rare faction called Dark Ones that is entirely composed of Doom creatures. Their place in the world is ambiguous at best, but possibly linked to psionics. Lovecraftian themes: Deep Ones being the most glaring example, maintaining similar references from X-COM: Terror from the Deep. Warhammer 40,000: Some weapon names, most notably the lasgun and the chainsword. Also the race of ratlings. Minecraft: One researchable tech is named so; it leads to a mining facility and to pickaxe weapons, which are exceptionally good at bashing through walls. Army of Darkness: The entire description of the chainsaw says: Groovie. Black Sabbath: The description of the Boarding Gun: Heavy bolts of lead/Make his victims full of dread! ChicksOnSpeed: The Kaltes-Klares "mineral water" (of the addictive kind, presumably amphetamine or similar) is a reference to the song "Kaltes Klares Wasser". Fallout: The Bossar is a direct reference to the Bozar, a similarly awesome rifle in the franchise. Heavy Metal: The Lokk'Naar tribe is named after Loc-Nar, the Big Bad gem of the film. The Lokk'Naar tribe however is docile, practical and rather helpful, if greedy; there is absolutely no possibility that they are somehow linked to some ominous, pangalactic force, right? Puella Magi Madoka Magica: The Magical Girl; her Soul Gem looks identical to Homura's. Also, one avatar looks very much like Madoka herself. Regular Show: One possible Lokk'Naar surname is "Trashboat". Vocaloid: One of the avatars is clearly modeled after Hatsune Miku. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann: You start the game with a Tiny Drill which seemingly has no purpose. Later in game, it turns out that it can be combined with the Menacing Hull waiting in your hangar, resulting in one of four possible designs of the Menace class warship. Also, the description of the final warship required to start the final mission in the normal manner says that it can "pierce the heavens." Starcraft: The "Raynerd must survive" mission. Freakazoid!: A title you can attain after a freakishly successful month is literally Freakazoid. Hexen: The Cobra Staff weapon is reminiscent of the Serpent Staff used by the Cleric in the original Hexen, including having both a melee and a ranged mode. Fate/stay night: One avatar looks much like Saber, and another one like Rin. Stellaris: After researching Gnome Origins: "Your Brainer has now the Paranoid trait. It does not have any effect on her research efficiency, though." Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri: The Academy is led by Provost Zakharina, an obvious reference to Provost Zakharov. Johnny Cash: The description of "Ol' Revolver" quotes Devil’s Right Hand verbatim, but attributes it to "traditional", since in the setting the song is seven hundred years old. Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome: The Masterblaster outfit, which is a unique combination of two units: an Ogre and a Gnome. Among Us: The Moongoose outfit (by name and design). The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trilogy: The Space Towel item. "When all seems lost, just grab onto it and read what it says! You'll be surprised how useful it can be. A best-selling item amongst smart people all over the Galaxy - just like the famous Hitchhiker's Guide says! Now in elegant black! Can be yours for a low, low price!" | |

Anchors Away: Unsurprisingly. They're bloody heavy and unwieldy, but hit hard when swung. You can also swing them like a melee weapon or by the chain; the latter is slower but gives a few tiles of range, and also lets you throw it at walls to try to batter them down. | |

Lethal Joke Weapon: Several of the weapons are ridiculous but still extremely effective if used right. There's even an achievement, "Joker", for killing a large number of enemies with them. The anchor. Weighs so much only the strongest characters can even carry it (and even they won't be able to be able to carry anything else), can only be swung on its chain to hit enemies at close-medium range, is terrible in melee, costs most of your action points to swing just once... but it only requires strength, no skill, and does such absurd damage that it can take out even late-game heavily-armored enemies in one hit provided you get close enough to use it, making it a valuable emergency button if you run into them earlier than you expected. It also uses no ammo, while most ranged weapons capable of piercing heavy armor cost a ton per shot. | |

| Piratez (Video Game) / int_deb39de3 | comment |
Bad Future: Crystallized from the original game's loss scenario, Piratez's basic premise is that X-Com lost and the alien invaders won. | |

Little People | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_e4ef338a | comment |
Little People: Ratlings. These guys heavily resemble the Boggies from Bored of the Rings: they are lazy and violent, preferring thievery and organized crime to hard work. The leader of a Ratling village is called a "Baggins", because he sits on a bag full of loot. Even other mutants hate them and occasionally organize "Ratman Rodeos", that is, raids at their villages to kill the little buggers and take their ill-gotten fortunes. | |

Determinator | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_e567510d | comment |
Determinator: Anyone with Bravery 50 or higher will always recover from combat stress after a while, no matter how little morale they have. Slave Soldiers are also unusually stoic in that their Morale does not constantly drift in the direction of their Bravery; in practical terms, this means that even low-Bravery Soldiers lack the tendency to start going nuts on long missions without action. | |

Clothing Damage | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_e61d9a3c | comment |
Clothing Damage: An effect of the Cyclops weapon; it primarily destroys armor and clothes. There is also a weaker subvariant of the Defender armor, the Damaged Defender armor, which can only be acquired when a girl wearing Defender armor gets shot down. Several other effects will erode the armor value of whatever they hit. A strike from a very powerful Piercing round will damage armor, as will acid blasts, bites from some animals, and the like. | |

Death Dealer | |

Death Dealer: Magic cards are an incredibly powerful mid-range weapon for gals with high throwing skills and at least a little voodoo. They're tiny (so they easily fit in a pocket), can be thrown four at a time, and one deck has a whopping 52 shots. | |

We Will Use Manual Labor in the Future: Because hiring Runts is way easier than buying complex machinery. Also the wiki jokes that the reason Slaves expands your storage space is by them standing around and holding objects all day, freeing up some shelves. | |

No "Arc" in "Archery" | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_e83fc5 | comment |
No "Arc" in "Archery": Averted. Not only do bows have an arc, you can even abuse it to shoot over obstacles and hit enemies the firing pirate can't see as long as you have a spotter. On the other hand, this makes bows and arcing shots like Assault Cannons less useful indoors or in woods, where the ceiling or tree canopies restrict your firing arc. | |

Suicide Attack: Anybody can do it by carrying a primed explosive; at the end of the phase, the explosives will go off. It's possible to, for example, start an Attack Dog or three with armed Satchel Charges during a base defense mission and to rush them into close contact with enemies before the bombs go off. | |

IncrediblyLamePun | |
| Piratez (Video Game) / int_f2877d9e | comment |
Incredibly Lame Pun: Sometimes invoked just for fun. Description of a stunning club called 'handle': As the name implies, its purpose is to handle people. The entire briefing to the Warehouse Wars mission: The omnipotent Traders run a warehouse in this area. If we 'ware' to strike it, we could turn their wares into warez. Dem dogs in guild colors are free targets to show off our prowess, but we can take some wh... wenches alive as warez too. Be-ware of them Guild Security, they're mighta be just oxen in armor, but that armor makes them very resistant to shotguns and lo-end pistols. Better to catch them un-a-wares and backstab 'em.

Everyone Is Armed: Everyone. Even the jolly tourist guy wearing shorts will try to shoot you to death.
