Activity – Ben – Pirates with Ben

Ben replied to the topic Custom Ships (post your custom game pieces here!) in the forum Pirates CSG 8 years ago

Glad to be here. I did notice things slowing down over there after the news and thought I would come here to stay a part of the community just in case MT does go.

I am glad you caught the spelling error (if there was a way to fix it I would haha, it was pretty late when I wrote that up and also forgot to have the faction in the info.

  Of course, I wanted to stick around even if Miniature Trading does not.
  When I get some time I am going to start collection the images of all the Pirates miniatures from MT, I can pass them your way when I have them all (maybe organized as well).
