Every now and then the skeleton fleet decides it should blockade a town to cut it off from resources and supplies.
Galleons and sloops will surround and guard the outpost and a new cloud, a red skull will appear in the sky.
Players with their crews are encouraged to find other players and ally, to build a fleet to combat this skeleton menace.
Killing the last ship rewards all the ships in the area regardless of their affiliation.
The number of ships should be enough where it would be extremely hard, near suicidal to take it alone even on a fully crewed ship.
Because we all use outposts the fact one becomes unavailable is a real pain, so it would be in everybodys interest to take these guys down!
It could also make those solo sloopers, like myself, pushed into interacting friendly with other ships instead of just slinking away or charging towards guns drawn.
