    Hey new here trying to get back into Pitares CSG since I found my old collection when I was cleaning my house and was wondering how many are still active and a request for dull checklists including promos if possible because there are ships/crew that have abilities I truly desire but I don’t know which they are.

    Ti’s good make’n your acquaintance, @Robert Foster I have just what yer lookin for.

    This is the ultimate checklist if your looking for the abilities of your ships.

    Pirates CSG Master Spreadsheet that is for all of the ships ever. Master Keyword List and that is for all of the keywords ever.

    How many are still active?

    On any given day on the various Pirates CSG community hubs, probably 1 or 2 dozen.  Overall, most years see probably at least 100 people post comments/etc.  Possibly closer to 200.

    a request for dull checklists including promos

    Along with the Master Spreadsheet, I made a Buy/Sell/Trade version that doesn’t have abilities but fits your description of a “dull checklist”.

    Do you have the full ability text?  Sounds like Hoard to me.

    I Can Haz Treasure: Once per turn as a free action, you can transfer one treasure from a friendly ship within S of this ship to this ship.

     

    It’s on your Keyword list.

    hahaha I have never ever heard it referred to as “I can Haz Treasure” but the ability you are referring to belongs to American Native Canoes!!

    How could I check? I thought Return to Savage Shores was unreleased. And the Keyword Lists Chieftain and Native Canoe as Keywords and do not mention anything like the “I Can has Treasure” ability

     

    Native Canoe: In order for a ship with this keyword to be in your fleet when the game begins, you must also have a crew that has the Chieftain keyword (of the same nationality) assigned to a ship in your fleet when the game begins. If that Chieftain is eliminated during the game, only one friendly Native Canoe of that nationality in your fleet can be given and action each turn. A Native Canoe can’t be given an explore action on your first turn. Native Canoes can’t be assigned crew and can’t ram, be rammed, pin, be pinned, board, or be boarded. Native Canoes can’t tow and can’t have their cargo capacity increased. When a Native Canoe is hit, it sinks.

     

    Chieftain: A crew with this keyword adds five Native Canoes of the Chieftan’s nationality to your starting fleet, it must be assigned to a ship at the beginning of the game. After placing your ships at your home island, chose a wild island and place all Native Canoes in your fleet so that their bows touch that island. You can’t choose the same wild island as an opposing player.

    While this crew is assigned to a friendly ship, once during your turn you can give an action to each Native Canoe in your fleet.You must give each Native Canoe of the same nation the same action. If this crew is eliminated, roll a d5. On a result of 1 or 2, eliminate one Native Canoe from your fleet. On a 3 or 4, eliminate two. On a 5 or 6, eliminate three. If this crew is ever not assigned to a friendly ship, you can only give one Native Canoe of that nationality an action each turn.

    It’s on your Keyword list.

    No it’s not.

    How could I check?

    The American canoes are from Savage Shores, which you can find in the Master Spreadsheet.

    https://piratescsg.fandom.com/wiki/Keywords

    you don’t run this one?

    Nope.  I don’t like to abbreviate or shorten every ability.  That page includes a massive number of unofficial keywords.  The ones I like to use are in the first tab of the Customs Database.

    Yikes.  That whole page is just a disaster, and based on edit history, it’s been abandoned for almost a decade.   Delete your bookmark to that wiki site and never look back.

     

    Stick with the official and/or verified information Ben has available here.   The “Information and Stats” section (in the menu at the top of this page) should have everything you’d need.

    You have self created ships?

    Yeah it’s fun!  I think I’ve made at least 1600 total custom game pieces between Epic Seas and Age of Sail. (my two sets)

    Never mind, found it, currently making one, is there a good point formula I can use for balance?

    I prefer Google sheets, especially since it can be shared without viewers needing to download anything.

    is there a good point formula I can use for balance?

    Some things like that have been created by some folks this year but I prefer to go based on feel, though that’s a lot easier with a lot of playing experience.

    When I get done with this set could someone help me with point values?

    Post it in the Custom Ships thread and you should be able to get some feedback.

    Exactly as Ben said, and I’ll be glad to lend a hand.
