Merchants and Marauders is a favorite of mine. It is a great thematic game because it really feels like you are a pirate. At the same time there is more too it than just rolling the dice and getting lucky. Your decisions have a greater impact on winning than pure dumb luck. All together the theme, strategic depth, and quality components make this a great game IMO.

The combat in this game is a little more complicated than it needed to be, but other than that this is a fun sea-faring game! The balance is spot-on. I've seen merchants win out over pirates and vice-versa. You really just need to know how to play your role.

First play is an "8", though some rules needed to be clarified. Second play regraded it to "7" as there could be long time of waiting, especially when a player is fighting a NPC.
