This would later come back to haunt Broadside. Interestingly, because Broadside feared the Islanders more than Captain Ironhook did, he tried to wipe them out. Two years later, when Captain Ironhook's Pirates discovered Enchanted Island, Governor Broadside had his share of attempts at retrieving King Kahuka's treasure, but he was no more successful than Ironhook. Aided by the LEGO Maniac, Governor Broadside began to have much better luck against Captain Redbeard, although no matter how many times he captured the pirate, he always managed to escape. In 1992, Governor Broadside moved to an English colony, the Imperial Trading Post, and became governor of that place as well, and gained control of the Imperial Guard. ![]() However, despite this failure, his reputation as a governor grew positively. He sailed back to Port Royal without any treasure. As a volcano did erupt, Broadside grabbed Camilla from the pirates and raced back to the Caribbean Clipper. Popsy, whom Broadside had brought, threw a fit, which Redbeard explained meant that a volcano was about to erupt. Immediately, the pirates planned to team up to take on the Imperial Soldiers, but started arguing over how they would share the treasure. Governor Broadside and the Imperial Soldiers arrived at Shipwreck Island just in time to find a brawl between Captain Redbeard's pirates and Captain Foul's pirates over the Blackhearts' treasure. Learning from Popsy that the Blackhearts' treasure was somewhere on Shipwreck Island, Governor Broadside decided to ready a Caribbean Clipper to head for Shipwreck Island. He quickly changed his mind when Popsy repeated something else that Redbeard said. When Popsy repeated an insult towards Broadside, Broadside snapped and ordered the parrot to be roasted. Before he could punish de Martinet for letting this happen, an Imperial Soldier entered the room with Popsy. The next morning, Governor Broadside was furious that overnight Captain Redbeard blew a whole in Eldorado Fortress, freed Boatswain Will, and seemingly kidnapped Camilla, though he was more concerned about his fort than he was about his niece. Broadside then continued his lunch in peace. Broadside agreed to leave out the whipping, but still wanted Will hung the next morning. Broadside's niece, Camilla, pleaded with Broadside to be more merciful, for Will had helped her in the past. Broadside sentenced Will to a whipping followed by hanging. ![]() Boatswain Will was brought before Broadside, and tried and convicted as a pirate. Three days later, while helping himself to a feast of a lunch, Governor Broadside was approached by de Martinet, who explained that they captured one of Redbeard's pirates. When Broadside requested proof, the spy sent one half of the Blackhearts' Golden Medallion with the monkey Spinoza on an Imperial ship, but the ship was intercepted and raided by Captain Redbeard's pirates. In 1989, Governor Broadside received word from an unidentified spy amongst the pirates, who stated that he was on the track of the Blackhearts' treasure. There, he met two iconic figures that would change his life: Lieutenant de Martinet, an Imperial Soldier admiral who would become Broadside's second-in-command, and Captain Roger Redbeard, who gave Broadside his bitter hatred towards Pirates. When Prudence married a French admiral, Broadside became governor of the French colony of Port Royal and its Eldorado Fortress, and leader of the Imperial Soldiers. Broadside is presumably a Minifig of English nationality or descent, and at one point in his life moved with his sister, Prudence, to the Tropical Sea.
