Made for Ben’s challenge Jan 2024.

 

Cargo Masters do give space to Flotillas, so Nero+Armada should work.

If you haven’t already, I’d suggest you join our discord server: https://discord.gg/cUrrqhxd
You’re much more likely to find a good deal there, especially as a returning player. It’s also a bit more active as of late, so nows as good a time as any!

It does seem that you haven’t agreed to the rules using an emoticon yet. Let me know if you need any help with that.

Glad you rediscovered this game after so many years. I too am a big Moby D!ck fan, so one of my first online purchases was for the Pequod to add to my infantile Pirates CSG collection. I would suggest that you join the Pirates CSG Discord for specific ships and crew bits, I guarantee someone there has it! You might also find some…[Read more]

I really wanted every ship to have a captain. And yes! There is a Black Diamond, it’s where I live, about an hour north of Rainier (big missed chance for a named crew right there). I’m just making my…[Read more]

I set up this fleet to have an excuse to use Calico Cat and Griffin together after Lance (Soul X Crusader) hooked me up with them.

I’m from Black Diamond, WA. I would definitely describe myself as entirely a player, I have no interest in keeping unpunched cards lying around, when instead I could use their untapped fleet potential against my enemies. I got into Pirates CSG around a month ago when I found an unopened Spanish Main pack at my local games store…[Read more]
