Few names illicite more excitement and hype in One Piece than the King of the Pirates himself, Gol D. Roger. The Pirate King ushered in the Great Pirate Era and had more impact on One Piece's story than any other character in the series, but beyond Roger's importance to the narrative, he was written to be legendary, and his influence expands across the shōnen genre as one of the most legendary characters in all of anime.
When Roger speaks, everyone listens and his character was not only written to be a legendary figure, but his name creates more suspense and inspiration than any other character in shōnen. While Roger himself is long dead, his presence remains constant throughout One Piece's saga and is one of the few instances in fiction where a character influenced an entire generation of fans to where every One Piece fan can recite the...

The race to find the wealth and treasure of Gol D. Roger has reached its final stage with the beginning of the finale saga in One Piece, and the only main contender who is the closest to becoming Pirate King is the protagonist, Monkey D. Luffy.

Gols are your primary currency in My Time At Sandrock, making them perhaps the most important resource to earn fast in this adventure RPG. Nothing is free in the small town of Sandrock in this post-apocalyptic yet wholesome world your character finds themselves in. You'll have to focus on specific upgrades and pay attention to your objectives and missions to farm a good amount of money for your adventures.
The easiest way to collect Gol comes from completing each Mission tied to the main story, especially the ones early in the game. With the Knives Out update to My Time At Sandrock, there is far more story content you can finish for a large amount of Gol as a reward. Side Missions are also worth pursuing for the same reason, so make sure to keep an eye out for a question mark icon on your mini-map that shows the location of optional quests.

Craig Heaney's role as Private Roy W. Cobb in Band of Brothers was a breakout role and the highlight of his career, with no other projects as prominent or lasting. Heaney's acting career seemed to have ended after his final role in The Queen in 2009, as he has not appeared on-screen since then. Cobb, Heaney's character, faced a downward spiral in the Army, culminating in his assault on a sergeant, resulting in a court-martial, discharge, and eventual move to New York, where he died of cancer later in life.
Band of Brothers tells the story of Easy Company — 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division in World War II, and the television show features an ensemble cast, including Craig Heaney as Private Roy W. Cobb. Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks created the HBO miniseries, which ran for ten episodes in late 2001 and received widespread critical claim.
