Just messaged NECA, Wizkids, and Justin Ziran (President of Wizkids Games) on Facebook about the recent podcasts with 4 of the people who worked on the game.  Also asked if the styrene format is still too cost prohibitive to produce.

Additionally, I’m reasonably OK with a minor faction(outside of mercenaries), or a one-off faction getting slight discounts on ships and crew, since they won’t have any other ships and crew to choose from down the line (probably, assuming that no other customs are made for them); or will have a limited selection of ships and crew compared to est…

A friend of DiggerDaviez posted a video on youtube recently, nice to see another person making video content for the game besides just Xerecs and I.

Pirates CSG: The Lost Tabletop-Phoenix Talks-01

New auctions up from this seller.  Fun to see my site get mentioned in the description, wow!  🙂  CC lot looks interesting with some LE’s and plenty of quantity.

@JW Darkhurst: Doomsday is intense, and she reminds me a lot of my version of HMS Victory.  Though it seems more powerful for less points.  XD  I think it’s best when the faction affiliation is soon after the miniature name, but of course that’s personal preference.

I’m not in favor of making game pieces illegal to use on purpose, so I think th…[Read more]

It would make me crazy (ok, crazier) to have to try to collect one whole set of the “lighter cards” of its first run, then another of the slightly darker ones which came after (not referring to UL).

Yeah, some of the collectors out there have certainly done that, but I just want at least one of everything.  3 sets in 1 is not worth it to me.…[Read more]

I didn’t think of it until now, but I just realized I could use a spare Locker to make a gold Coleoptera using the gold paint I used for my gold island and the gold ship from Command the Oceans.

Also from MI, why is the German print iteration of 028 Prussian Crown (“Preussische Krone”) considered unusual, as noted on the spreadsheet for that set…

I’m sure old_man could come up with a nice list.  😀

For example, the MI 029 Coleoptera/Nautilus error. Is there a picture of concept art for the proper “gold” Coleoptera, online somewhere that I missed?

It’s so bizarre.  A while back at MT, someone had a compelling argument based (I think) on Jules Verne material that said the Coleoptera was sup…[Read more]

Red Curse SE box

Trawling around eBay and didn’t find too much else. (apart from auctions being bid on of course)

I’m really glad a lot of the community and regulars are already registered here, because the spam has gotten bad the past day or two.  Registration is closed again; I hope to try something new tomorrow or Sunday that may help, but I don’t want to leave the current registration open when I know I can’t be on the site.

Thanks for being here; I…[Read more]
