ParticipantHey 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.

ParticipantTi’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.

KeymasterHow 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”.

Participant“Dull checklists” facepalms You had one shot at a first impression. Yeah found that after I posted this, does anyone here know what ship has the ability “I Can Haz Treasure?”

Keymasterdoes anyone here know what ship has the ability “I Can Haz Treasure?”
Do you have the full ability text? Sounds like Hoard to me.

ParticipantI 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.

Moderatorhahaha 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!!

ParticipantHow 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.

KeymasterIt’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.

Keymasterhttps://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.

you don’t run this one?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.

ParticipantHow cow! You have self created ships?
September 17, 2020 at 4:22 PM #12093Ben
KeymasterYou 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)

ParticipantWhat google docs do I use to make my own?

KeymasterI 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.

ParticipantWhen 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.
September 23, 2020 at 1:11 AM #12132Xerecs
ModeratorWhen I get done with this set could someone help me with point values?
Exactly as Ben said, and I’ll be glad to lend a hand.
