That wouldn’t be much of a use for me since it’s an RPG, but thanks for helping anyways!
Sea Dogs II came out as Pirates of the Caribbean in 2002/2003, Disney quickly paid Bethesda to rename the game.
I know there are tons of similar games like this, but I’d really really love to get SDII, I have some good memories of it and I’m sure it will bring nice nostalgic moments c”:

(aka the first PotC game on PC)
I used to play this game a lot, I used to have a CD with it, but it’s lost now.. I guess it got lost six years ago.
When I browse the Internet, it seems that whole world is searching for this game from 2002 and can’t find any decent shop or download. Sure, this situation goes for most of old games.
I’m kind of desperate, so I’m using tumblr to ask ._.
I would seriously buy the game, if it could be shipped to my country…. Any ideas?

Stormtroops Advancing Under Gas, Otto Dix 1924.
Part of the reason behind the Christmas truce, as Modris Eksteins argues, is the fact that though trench warfare was horrifically miserable and the fighting had been bitter, the war had not yet reached the kind of unparalleled horror we have come to generally associate with it. The imagery, Eksteins says, that World War I evokes is that of the horrors described in Sassoon and Wilfred Owen’s poems - the horrors that did not become a fixture of the war until 1916 and 1917.
For example, gas. Gas was introduced in 1915 by the Germans (along with most other innovations such as the flamethrower, sniping and tench mortars) in defiance of the Hague Declaration of 1899 and the Hague Convention of 1907, which forbade the use of poison and poisonous weapons in warfare.
“Gas was certainly not used because it was more humane but because it compounded the horrors to which the front soldier was subjected. It was not used instead of artillery.
[…]
Surrounded by masked men during a phosgene attack at Verdun, Pierre de Mazenod was reminded of a ‘carnival of death.’ For many, gas took the war into the realm of the unreal, the make-believe. When men donned their masks they lost all sight of humanity, and with their long snouts, large glass eyes, and slow movements, they became figures of fantasy, closer in their angular features to the creations of Picasso and Braque than to soldiers of tradition. Dorgelés called the gas mask ‘this pig snout which represents the war’s true face.’” (Modris Eksteins, Rites of Spring: The Great War and the Birth of the Modern Age.)](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lw1lahWxCF1r6y3vao1_500.jpg)

Hurley, Frank (1885-1962), The morning after the first battle of Passchendaele [Passendale] showing Australian Infantry wounded around a blockhouse near the site of Zonnebeke Railway Station, 12 October 1917.
“Hurley served alongside George Hubert Wilkins as the first official photographer to the Australian Imperial Forces in the First World War. The troops dubbed him the ‘mad photographer’ because of his derring-do to get pictures. He took some of the only known colour photos of the war.
… [This photograph] is a striking example of Hurley’s use of composite printing, wherein he fuses a divine sunlight. While Hurley believed his manipulation of images helped capture the reality of battle, the influential war correspondent and historian, Charles Bean, accused them of being fakes.” (Source.)](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4ku3s66bv1r6y3vao1_500.jpg)
