Madam Doomkitten 18 Posted January 20, 2019 Alright, we've got hanging and beheading. What about keelhauling? From ye olde wikipedia: Quote Keelhauling (Dutch kielhalen;[1] "to drag along the keel") is a form of punishment and potential execution once meted out to sailors at sea. The sailor was tied to a line that is looped beneath the vessel, thrown overboard on one side of the ship, and dragged under the ship's keel, either from one side of the ship to the other, or the length of the ship (from bow to stern). The common supposition is that keelhauling amounted to a sentence of either death by extreme torture, or minimally a physical trauma likely to permanently maim. The hull of the ship was usually covered in barnacles and other marine growth, and thus, keelhauling would typically result in serious lacerations, of which the victim could later suffer infection and scarring. If the victim was dragged slowly, his weight might lower him sufficiently to miss the barnacles, but this method would frequently result in his drowning. There was also a risk of head trauma, especially if the ship was in motion. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aristocrates 11 Posted January 20, 2019 Excellent suggestion! (mwahaha) Another bounty thing I'd like to see would be an option for live capture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joemorin73 6 Posted January 24, 2019 There is the minor issue where none of the ships have a keel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
