Why are there no fantasy games based on the pirates of the South China Sea?
Short answerSuch board games do exist in Asia, but the examples recalled here have not reached the English-language market.
NotesThe premise that no games cover South China Sea pirates is corrected. At least one Chinese board game is recalled from a copy brought to Britain by a friend from Hong Kong. Another game may be Vietnamese, although that identification is based on memory and second-hand discussion. Their absence from English-language distribution makes the subject look less represented than it is.
