Jamaica
When you land on an occupied port, does the battle come before the port fee and hiring, and can a Buccaneer attack before you pay?
Several posters apply the base rule that combat precedes payment, and no designer has ruled on the Buccaneer timing.

Yes, the battle comes first. Combat resolves before any port payment or recruiting, so a Buccaneer recruited at that port cannot fight that turn. A Buccaneer attack can also happen before you pay, even if you then cannot pay and must move back.
