Why cheerleaders aren’t useless.  If it works out right, it’s like adding extra gunpowder or cannonballs to all the shots of an entire line of gunships!  😀

Is Calypso’s ability supposed to be mandatory?

At the beginning of each of your turns, roll a d6. On a result of 4-6, instead of giving this ship an action, choose two whirlpools from outside the game.
