Golden Age of Piracy: Part 2

Bring Henry Every and his flagship Fancy into your Pirates games! Featuring my new 3 mast frigate and 2 mast brig designs, this release is all Pirate faction.

Piracy flourished across the seas throughout the 1690s. Henry Every became one of the richest and most successful pirates of all time with his capture of a Mughal convoy transiting the Indian Ocean in 1695. Other captains involved in the raid pillaged their way from Rhode Island to pirate havens on Madagascar. Some escaped but others were killed by illness, natives or execution.

The price is higher than my older Mega Packs because it was originally released exclusively to subscribers of my Buccaneer’s Booty Box, which is my primary product.

5 Ships: Fancy, Pearl, Susanna, Amity, Seaflower
8 Crew: Henry Every, Robert Culliford, William May, Thomas Wake, Giles Shelley, John Ireland, Richard Want, Joseph Faro

Designed and Produced by: Pirates with Ben (A7XfanBen)

Disclaimers:
-This product is not affiliated with Wizkids. This is your chance to support a new company that is making the product in the USA!
-Health hazards: Styrene is a possible human carcinogen; do not inhale it. Recommend washing hands and cleaning up area after building the ships. Punching pieces out of the cards can be messy – it’s best to clean up the styrene dust after handling.
-The laser cutting can distort the artwork slightly, seen if you look closely. Some cards may have laser scorch marks on them, which can actually look cool as battle damage.
-There may be some areas where the cuts are more jagged.
-Some of the artwork may be slightly misaligned from front to back, due to the difficulty of aligning both the print jobs and the cut process.
-Thoughtful design: These game pieces have not been playtested, but they were carefully crafted and edited using a combination of Ben’s extreme experience (600+ PCSG games played!) and guidance from four different point-costing systems.

Tips for constructing your new fleet:
-Thicker plastic=More durability! My styrene is a bit thicker than the plastic used for the original cards, but please be patient when building the ships – they can be fragile.
-When punching out the pieces, it’s best to push on the areas near where they are connected to the card via tabs (ex: the top and bottom of masts).
-There may be discrepancies on slot tolerances – the ships should construct well as shown in the pictures, but results may vary. Some slots may have small extra bits of styrene that must be removed in order to fit the pieces together.
-Best to leave ships constructed – due to the laser burning away material, they generally don’t go back into the cards well.
-Recommended to insert some tabs into slots in isolation to test fit before building a ship in full.

Material: .04″ white styrene with UV ink. The high-quality ink doesn’t scratch or flake!
