Man O’ War: Corsair – Warhammer Naval Battles is, as you might guess, a game about living the life of a privateer in the Warhammer fantasy world.

The reality is altogether different.

With the continuous stream of new releases, it’s sometimes hard to remember that there's still plenty of excuses to fire up games you already own.
