I think you missed a point value or two

Any game pieces I didn’t comment on or suggest a new cost for are fine as-is in my opinion.

Also what lore descriptions did you like best so far?

I only read a few since I was focusing on the point costs and gameplay aspects.

Even with the new wording, you can still use crew without the Linked keyword…[Read more]

If anyone was wondering why the faction order for Epic Seas is completely different than my normal faction order (for collection organization and the Age of Sail set), it’s because I wanted to emphasize different factions for that set.  The Cursed play a huge role, and the Mercenaries could realistically be second in the spreadsheet.  However, t…[Read more]

Wow, nice!   Even without the formatting, that’s really useful.   Thanks!

Now that I’m using it a little to get Godmason’s customs in the Customs Database, I’m finding random errors.  Sometimes full words or cannons are missing from a post, so it’s not nearly a perfect conversion even as far as the text goes.  However, I converted one of the big…[Read more]

Just printed a test cube from this process and it happens to be the perfect size for a little fort, a building, or a coin deposit!  You could even stack up coins and hide them underneath. (4 master for scale heh)

Great news: with google drive you can upload a picture that has text and open it with google docs to convert it to regular text.  I just tried it with a capture of the original Custom Ships Organized Version thread (nearly 3MB with a ton of text) and it worked.  Doesn’t preserve the formatting but at least an option.

Among other things there are full booster boxes of CC, RV, and BC!

Have you heard of any new players that discovered Pirates or were introduced to it via Savage Shores?

I think I remember at least one member of the Facebook group getting into the game via SS.  Though it may have been by chance last decade rather than when the set was still in stores.

It’s just interesting that RtSS has been known about for…[Read more]

Something I thought of today: people have expressed considerable interest or enjoyment in the large-scale ships seen at the Minnesota RenFest and those from PDXYAR.  3D printed ships would be limited by the size of the print bed, but simply by upscaling the x, y, and z axis of each model, you could print ships of varying sizes.  😀  (some ad…[Read more]
