Moonbeam is kinda weird, at least to me. Her ability would be hard to keep track of I would think in a larger game, then again it might not be. Testing would tell.

The Ionics get two more submarines!

Some interesting slow gold runners there…. so Agi would be S+S+S for 7 points for 4 cargo on the way out, and S+S with about 4 coins on the way back… seems reasonable I suppose. The second one (reminds me of some Savage Shores pronunciations) is neat. I don’t think Nui’s ability is going to help her much, but perhaps there could be some…[Read more]

Three today! I think I already posted the Agi on MT, back when I introduced the Ionics, but with the issues there I can’t be certain. Plus new feedback on it would be good to hear.

The inspiration behind the Nurak was a character that compelled people to go back to their job/task. I translated it as best I could without making it too similar to existing mind control pieces.

Kinda weird for Pirates; maybe the ships that get hit cannot shoot at Nurak on their next turn? What makes the most sense to me would be forcing them to…[Read more]

The SF reminds me of El Neptuno, but not as good, at least on my first glance. Given that ship and the fun combos that can be pulled off with her, the SF looks fun to play. The Americans may not have the crew variety of the Spanish but there are plenty of cool things you could do with this. Perhaps it’ll wind up in the staring fleet for THC?…[Read more]

“Perfect shoot action” needs to be more specific. All cannons hit, or just the ship’s regular cannons? (not including a Musketeer/etc) Must roll only 6’s?
Last part of Bohrdak’s ability could say “you may give the target ship an action”.
Nurak’s ability is a bit strange and as usual I don’t like the teleportation aspect of it. (nearest wild…[Read more]

The Breeze is VERY quick. I think it’s a good thing she’s on the smaller side, since we’ve seen what that ability on larger ships can do.

Vaki— A ship with this keyword cannot sink, but may be scuttled. This ship cannot carry crew.

That might be a little too cheap, but I wouldn’t be opposed to that for playtesting purposes.

For a middle ground, 13-14 points. This will probably affect the next six with this keyword, since they’re all two masters.

The new Vaki ships look like a conundrum. The ability to not carry crew severely hurts them, to the point where both may be overpriced.

Hmmm…… Would bringing their costs down to around 12-13 be better?

The towing would work as if towing a derelict. If the Putrid Atrocity is too good once used, I’ve thought about simply dropping the Switchblade part. Ships being towed automatically dock at islands when the towing ship docks, so getting gold slowly isn’t completely out of the question. Something like Hades’ Realm would be really nasty to tow it…[Read more]

That’s a lot of cargo for something that’s basically a flotilla. 😀 With that much room you can fit all manner of equipment and specialist crew aboard. Since it HAS to be towed, gold running is not an option for this, only combat, and it looks well prepared for the task. I’m not sure how the towing rule would work, rules wise. Maybe you could ask…[Read more]
