That does make sense.  Allow them to be repaired, possibly even as a free action if you pay 1 gold.

I really like that too, I love any rule that lets you spend gold for a possible advantage, adds an element of economic strategy I like. (Was a big fan of forts being added)

I forgot about those until reading this post! Hardcore dose of nostalgia staring at those scenes hoping one of packs I just got would yield a ship that cool. I think they’re absolutely fair game because they are produced with the sets, as long as you have all the information wether it be with the deck card or by finding it online it is valid.…[Read more]

I think it would be interesting to have a house rule allowing you the option to shoot the oars off a galley by targeting them – if both sets get shot off, the ship loses access to the keyword for good.

I like the idea, helps balance it some but the permanent removal seems a little unrealistic since it’s a form of equipment. What if you had you k…[Read more]

Ah, makes perfect sense now, thanks for explaining.  That is quite interesting and unique.   Do you plan to test it out in a game?

Certainly would like to when I get the opportunity again, I have only a couple of pieces with the keyword though, don’t often make there way into most games.

I don’t fully understand – if you rolled 2 dice, wouldn’t the probability of getting hits be better regardless of ship size?  Perhaps an example would help.

By this I’m refering to a kinda complicate custom rule in an attempt to rewrite the keyword. For example we’ll say a 4 mast ship holds the keyword and engages in the action after fulfil…[Read more]

I’ve always liked how simple yet versatile the movement system has been but I’ve almost played with a modified rule that sees a ship’s listed speed as its “top” speed. The people I have played with and I always saw it as something that you could choose to modify within your move action. If your move was S+S you can choose to move any where between…[Read more]

I’ve always been kinda confused by the broadside attack keyword and only recently actually looked at how to use it. I usually just avoided the keyword all together. I feel like an acceptable balance to the ability would have to deal with scaling and loss of hits. Something like you can roll and additional die and take the highest option but you…[Read more]

I was honestly surprised that there was still a community for this game at all when I found this site. It was a large part of my childhood for my siblings and I as we where just old enough to be able to start playing and understanding this game when it came out. I revisted it in a bought of nostalgic collecting funded by tax returns and stumbled…[Read more]

Hey there!

I’ve used this sight a few times for reference and such as I have got back into the game recently. I’m about 50/50 player and collector and I started playing near launch when I was a young kid. I found a few wholesale stores that had displays left over from the hayday of wizkids csg’s and bought a bunch (now have means and whole lot…[Read more]
