Suppose a ship finds Buried Treasure (or Plunder), and that treasure is later lost in a boarding party to an enemy ship. Does the loosing a turn aspect of those treasures apply to the ship that took them in the boarding party?
Ship A finds Buried Treasure(BT) and looses a turn and establishes value. Ship A is later boarded by enemy ship B. Ship B…[Read more]

I would clarify what this means – can shoot at submerged ships, can ram them, etc
It would function similar to the abilities of Cadara and Shaihulud, without the submarine restriction. Hopefully the following clears it up.

The fifth version of Leviathan! Some wording has been changed to hopefully make things more clear, along with changing when a leviathan can ram an opposing ship.

This is assuming “its submerged status” is in regards to the Leviathan, because if it’s in reference to any enemy submerged ship, that part is already covered by the part in parentheses.
I may need to revise the wording again. A submerged Leviathan can shoot normally at any submerged ship (submarine, Sea Monster, etc), but while submerged a levia…[Read more]

Revisiting a concept from before I started posting Farthest Shore, the Leviathan. Version 4 of the keyword to go along with the rough template I made a while ago:

It only counts toward the build limit of a ship, and the effect is continuous/always active as long as the point-reducer crew remains on board.
Even if the point reducer is moved to another ship? For example, lets say I have Stump on ship A, and then decide that I might want him on ship B. If I transfer him to ship B will he reduce the point costs…[Read more]

The Stump & others
Place this crew face up during setup. Reduce the cost of all other crew placed on this ship by 1.The Code leads me to believe that this ability can only be applied at the beginning of the game, during set-up. I take it that the point reduction would not function if this crew was transferred to another ship later in a game?…[Read more]

Suppose I have a set of Native Canoes in my fleet. At the start of the game, the canoes are placed at a wild island. The Canoes cannot explore on their first action, per their keyword. If I get a ship with the S-Explore ability out to that island on my first turn and mark it explored, can the Canoes be given a move action to re-dock at the island…[Read more]

Some nice pirates action! Maybe next you’re out we can get a 3 or more player game.

Do you think it’d be worth the cost instead if it just gave a +1 mast repair per shipwright (giving incentive for multiples to be taken)? 16 points and leaving it alone sound pretty good too though!
I don’t think that first idea would work, due to the no stacking rule. Unless you mean that the ship would be able to repair a number of masts equal t…[Read more]

Nice to see these return! These models are a little larger than I thought they’d be, is that an actual light at the top?
I’m going to sound a little silly, but I was expecting them to look more like a taller skinnier fort, like several 2D pieces of plastic put together to make a 3D shape.

Love the ability spread. Could be made into a super hybrid
Most likely could be, the Nexus Alliance has some interesting crew options.

Looks like it would be a blast to use. That’s a very powerful new ability, this might even be a ship that goes beyond 50 points someday….
Maybe someday her cost will go up, for now I think 45 is okay. There are some interesting options given that she doesn’t have a linked crew and the Ionics have several super crew to their name.
