Matt Lovell replied to the topic What do you miss most about the game being out of print? in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 5 months ago
I miss games at LGS. Was nice showing up and occasionally getting to play against someone not my wife and maybe getting a tourney card out of it. Really need to try and get a date set up at our current LGS to play. Maybe convince others to pick up the game.
I miss finding the packs at stores. It was part of the fun for us to drive around seeing…[Read more]

Matt Lovell replied to the topic Rules for Thought #34 – Repairing by d6 roll, Creatures repair by eating crew? in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 5 months ago
Maybe a small change to shipwright needing to be on a ship only and not islands or some type of delay in its’ ability if it’s left on an island for a turn should work. Haven’t had time for a bunch of thought on this one yet. Not sure how well it’d work.
Or perhaps a shipyard type card required on an island where the shipwright could repair extra.…[Read more]

Matt Lovell replied to the topic MT finally shutting down 7/1/19 in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 5 months ago
Not sure why it wasn’t displayed for Ben and Woelf. It appeared plastered on every page of MT I tried prior to posting here.
Just another annoying hiccup for MT I suppose

Title says it all. Save your stuff from there if you haven’t already.

Sounds like a potentially fun ability.

Matt Lovell replied to the topic Why did you like or dislike the Caribbean set? in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 6 months ago
I mostly enjoyed the expansion because of the tie-in and it always seemed to me, that it had a higher number percentage wise of 5 Masters, though that is just a feeling, never ran the numbers.
Not that it was without gripes. As you mentioned, Cursed should have been a big part but I think Jade and Barbary could have had a few too. And never…[Read more]

Matt Lovell replied to the topic Is Miniatures Trading down? in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 6 months ago
It’s currently up again this morning.
I’ve taken to using their feedback system every time I can’t get it lately. Don’t know if it helps but just maybe it does

Matt Lovell replied to the topic The eBay Sales thread in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 6 months ago
So as for value, I’m highly confident an OE rare can be gotten non-eBay for under $20. (Trying to stay on-topic of eBay).

Matt Lovell replied to the topic How do you value the box topper display stuff? in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 6 months ago
Love those displays and keep the ones we’ve got whole. Part of the reason the wife and I used to by whatever was left in those boxes. Stores were much less likely to say you couldn’t have the box if you were clearing inventory. The Plastic is often brittle or yellowed by now on the ‘out of box’ tops from those old purchases. Was nice to get n…[Read more]

Matt Lovell replied to the topic Thoughts on the rarity ratio? in the forum Pirates CSG 5 years, 7 months ago
I’d have to agree it had to have stayed fairly close to that throughout the run. There never has seemed to be a far off difference between rarities typically of what many other ccg’s I’ve played used. I think it’s helped non-Rares maintain their value for resale a lot better than the usual 1000’s of commons that seem to get junked in other games.

Welcome aboard!
Pocket Model promos you say? May just have to message you about that. Sounds like you’d be someone that might have an actual accurate list for SW:PM and not just rumors.

Matt Lovell replied to the topic Introduce Yourself! Join the Crew! in the forum Pirates CSG 6 years ago
Yes, Pirates got played on occasion. Not often but it happened. Underway most CCG type games would be Magic almost exclusively.

Matt Lovell replied to the topic Introduce Yourself! Join the Crew! in the forum Pirates CSG 6 years ago
Figured I’d start with this since introducing myself was about my third post over at MT since I kept putting it off.
So how I got into Pirates. I got into CCG’s in general with Star Trek in 1994 and played various games through 2005. Sometime in late 2005 or early 2006 my then girlfriend picked up a random pack, pretty sure Crimson Coast and we…[Read more]
