Though I am not a huge fan of the cursed faction, I am intrigued by those two customs. The Ceremonial Sacrifice with it’s permanent fire mast is unique and is tied in with the flavor and ability. I am assuming that it would be scuttled at the start of the turn after the…[Read more]

Interesting!  Will they be all historical customs, or some fantasy?  Those first two look good and fairly costed.

Thank you, I would like to make a lot of them based on historical ships, even if only in name. But I will have a few I make up. It is a little harder to find information on specific Russian ships or sailors any deeper than that list y…[Read more]

I would have to agree with Xerecs though about reducing the consecutive turns to 3.

USS Evening Star is extremely powerful.  I think HMS Endeavour should really cost 24-25 points, so I’d prefer to see the ES at 21 or more.  However, I would say the Derzkiy could go to 7.

Thank you for the feedback, and…[Read more]

Nice new and unique ability on the Stormdrove. I like terrain but don’t use it enough unfortunately.

Two more ships of my own. I’ll be sharing some crew soon, they are a little harder for me to come up with at the moment.

USS Evening Star

I will adjust those ships accordingly. (should I edit the post they are in as well?).

Ben, that is a unique Titan! I don’t use sea creatures much, but it is pretty cool to see one geared towards treasure hunting. Also think that crew is pretty neat as well! I can see that driving the enemy just a little crazy.

I would like to change that and will try to post more. Anyhow, here are two ships I have come up with recently. Unfortunately I still have not come up with flavor text for any of them and am still getting used to how to cost them for points, so don’t be shy…[Read more]

These two I am not certain where to price them (the first one due to the ability mainly), so I am open to suggestions.

Juggernaut
Points: ?
Faction: Mercenary
Cannons: 3S,3S,4S,4S,4S
Cargo: 3
Move: S+S
Ability: Mercenary. Whenever this ship successfully rams another ship, eliminate two masts from the rammed ship instead…[Read more]

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.

I thought I would start with two ships. I do not have a “complete” set of customs yet but thought I would get an idea of how to set accurate point costs by getting some feedback (or in a lot of cases a starting point). I also do not have any flavor text for any of them yet.…[Read more]

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).
