Report 12 is now here!

Report 11 is now here!

The Americans tried to get the English to go in with them, but English concerns over the Pirates and the discovery of the French led to them not lifting a finger to help the Americans. The Americans also reached out to the French, but the French were actively trading with the Spanish, and felt no need or desire to attack what they considered an ally.

Report Ten is now here! I will hopefully be uploading CoEC updates on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

I don’t think I’ve ever opened a pack of Crimson Coast. I think every Crimson Coast piece I have has either come in a trade or an eBay sale.

Dinos rule. 😀

Nice ideas, I think myself and both of my brothers have had a pirates themed birthday, granted when were much younger and didn’t know about the game.

Indeed, the American-Spanish conflict dominates most of the game, even into the end stages. They weren’t the only ones fighting, as the English and French conflicts had a major effect on what those two factions did, I just didn’t get as many shots of it as the Spanish-American, since it directly involved one of my fleets.

Huzzah and celebrations, report Nine is now up!

Not sure if I have any ‘major’ accomplishments…..

Indeed, the Spanish fleet is large, but just wait….. 😀
I’m not sure why the Cursed did what they did, but I do agree.
I think the Gui did roll for the reef, but I’m not sure now what happened after, or how she took no damage. It was something I was thinking about while making the report, and I can only assume I allowed them to explore the wreck…[Read more]

It’s finally here! Report 8 is now up!

Been a hot month (literally, I live in SoCal :D) since I made a report or any sizeable update to this years CoEC, and I am sad for that. 🙁 A few real life issues forced a week-long hiatus for the game, along with some health scares (not me, but family related). So. September is almost upon us, and I will try to get the rest of the reports out…[Read more]

I don’t really do much ‘fancy’ stuff with my collection, other than leaving masts in the water for physical campaign games.

Commodore Jackson will end up more expensive than he already is. The combination of Privateer and royal Officer might just be too good. Add in his captain and World-Hating abilities and he’s practically a super crew.

If the “Crew of any nationality may use their abilities on this ship” ability is 3 points, then I think that Privateer could be 2,…[Read more]

I feel that the Avenger could be just a bit quicker. I’m not a fan of fivers with S speed, unless like the SM Acorazado, they’re a cut above the rest. The Avenger doesn’t strike me as a cut above the rest.

Bluebeard could be a point or two more expensive. I’m not a point cost expert, but Privateer and royal Officer combined could be about 5…[Read more]

“The Cargo-Wrecking, though very useful, isn’t much of a point booster either, especially since the Devil has all rank-4 cannons.”

I strongly disagree.  If it’s useful, it has to increase the point cost.  6 cannons at 4L is not trivial, and a world-hater to essentially make them all 3L’s is easy to add (especially considering customs and not jus…

oooooh, I like that sixer VERY much. Excellent speed, and decent cannons, along with one of my favorite abilities. The negative ability would have to be seriously considered, especially when it reappears back home from eternal. In a regular game I don’t think it would be an issue as much since thee would be less ships, but in a campaign, with…[Read more]

I will probably take *a few* months off before I post new content and not just responses.

Don’t. 😀  I’ve purposely kept myself in the dark with the next set, so I’d like to see it sooner rather than later.

@xerecs/etc: Making your own custom ships could get a lot easier (and maybe even cheaper LONG term) with 3D printing!  You probably saw the recent posts at the FB group; makes me want to get a 3D printer of my own!  (I’ve already seen 2 recommendations there for printers under $300)

I would LOVE to try my hand at 3D printing ships, not only…[Read more]
