I quite like Valmung, I’d definitely use him on a Sea Monster or two.

I think I’d just like to see Deathshade made into a model, abilities notwithstanding.

Something that JW and I talked about regarding Marines, what if instead of a boarding bonus, a de-buff for an attacking boarder? In his and mine opinion, a contingent of Marines on a ship (assuming a generic Maine crew) wouldn’t so much boost you chances of a successful boarding, but would increase the defense of you ship in the event of a…[Read more]

I see you haven’t quite given up the customs game just yet.

I’m mostly helping out JW now. I don’t think I’ll make another full custom set, since I eventually want to bring ALL of my customs sets off of the paper. That’s a VERY long term goal.

The original idea was for a generic marine as it was written by WK, but costed at 4-5 points. I’ll run s…[Read more]

I already house ruled that marines will eliminate one mast on a hit for CoEC, but I like the idea of them being able to cut though defenses regardless.

It’s funny you mentioned Marines, JW and I are thinking about giving every faction a Generic Marine in one of his upcoming Custom sets. We could implement these ideas to make a “new” marine crew.

The Demon’s Den intrigues me, I’ll have to look though the Epic Seas to see if there are any decent functions for the ability.

I quite like the Carronade equipment, the lack of a negative result is interesting. I like that I could use two of them in the same tun, and that I could stack other equipment on them, like using the Carronades with two…[Read more]

A perspective I’m not used to seeing; makes me think the French should launch gunships and start whittling away at the Spanish gold fleet from around the island.

the French have been actively trading with the Spanish, and are not too badly off for it. Convincing them to tun on their only trade partner would take some doing.

Agreed, the Spanish h…[Read more]

I was speaking about the English specifically, they’re being played like one of the factions from CTO, if they haven’t seen it with one of their ships, then they don’t know about it. The English have seen the Pirates and are convinced that they are a great threat atm. It doesn’t help when the person ‘in charge of the English flavor wise is also…[Read more]

nah, I’d definitely save up to build that. 😀 Especially if I was playing as Cursed. Although, it might be a little difficult to make a physical model for this, since forts only have room for 8 flags…. I suppose you could squeeze some in on the sides.

Epic song indeed, have you heard this one? It’s not the full suite, but the bit that most…[Read more]

(which hasn’t been discussed?)

I never said it hasn’t. Just a little difficult to have secretive conversations when you all live together. 😀 In addition to that some of the factions need to be SHOWN that the Spanish are a threat, and others are hesitant to fight an ally.

If I do a point count I might only post it here and on the FB group, s…[Read more]

Brace yourself. 😀 Report 7 is now up!

Took a while due to the Holiday and other stuff, but Report 6 is now up!

Thanks for watching!

Cool!  Slightly surprised the English and Americans haven’t fired on each other given the close quarters.  Seems the Spanish will be able to increase their lead given the resource change.

Neither the English or the Americans want to get involved with a heated conflict with one another, at least not yet. The resource change is…[Read more]

Amidst the despair of losing Miniature Trading, I offer an escape, join me for Report 5 of Century of Economy, 2019.

Thanks, most of these were pertinent in CoEC, though recent developments there have changed some things around.

One more question, if a UT remove, like Pirate Codex or some such was revealed and all face-up UT’s are removed, in the case of the Chariot, what happens to the crew that was brought in?

A couple things i would like expanded upon and some clarification, if possible.

From the code, Chariot of the Gods:

-A crewmember assigned to a sea monster using this unique treasure ignores all cargo space requirements.

I’m taking this to mean that a Sea Monster with a cargo of 0 would be able to have a crew assigned to it, as long as it was…[Read more]

Thanks for watching!

Seems like nobody in your group wants the French to win again or something… kinda wish I could join the game and kick some ass with them. XD
Will be funny if their “gold threat” actually incentivizes other factions to HI raid them lol. A fleet in being is the real deterrent.

It would incentivize the pirates, but the Pirat…[Read more]

Report 4 is now up!

Granted, having Sea Monsters enter a game that’s already in progress isn’t really a thing under the official/standard rules, so if everyone in the game is okay with it, feel free to house rule it so the Chariot jumps to the first viable target that appears.

Thanks, I’ll probably do this.

Chariot of the Gods, from the code:

If there are no sea monsters in play when this unique treasure is revealed, it remains aboard the ship that found it and has no other effect.

This has come up in CoEC, the Chariot has been found, but there are no Sea Monsters in play when it was found. What would happen if a Sea Monster came into play? Would the…[Read more]
