Report 16 is now up! Has conflict finally begun?……

Report 15 is now up!

The Americans are really trying to meet with the Spanish. They want to know what’s up with the castle take-over.

After a Halloween hiatus, we are back! Report 14 is now up!

The Code:

“Named crew have only the abilities printed on their cards.  They do not gain any other abilities based upon their name, title, or flavor text. However, named crew may still be used to trigger other abilities that refer to a specific name or title.”

 

Does this mean that Capitaine Chevalle for example, would satisfy the condition for…[Read more]

“Seafloor Traveler”

…..she cannot ram, be rammed, pin or be pinned, board, be boarded……

-emphasis added-

I think that part of the keyword would prevent any boarding while submerged, even the S board ability.

Also, just updated the keyword slightly to more clearly state that the ship can only be given a move action while submerged.

Question from the Discord.

Can Sea Dragons be used to build a fort? Not as the ship that explores, but as the friendly ship docked at a previously explored island.

“Sea Dragon Keyword”

A sea dragon has a base move of D, meaning that it has unlimited movement. It ignores all terrain, islands, and ships when moving, but cannot end any movement…

Report 13 is now up! Has conflict begun?

I got sidetracked yesterday so we upload today! Report 12 is now up!

Welcome to the crew! While you lurk, consider joining the facebook groups and check out the discord server!

#1 Correct, Sea Creatures can only move or shoot. There have been a few people who have house-ruled the captain ability built into some.

#2 Native canoes begin the game docked at a wild island, but CANNOT be given an explore action on the first turn. Furthermore, Canoes must all be given the same action. If one of them moves, then the others can…[Read more]

Report 12 is now up!

Two fleets, one from Fire and Steel and one from Savage Shores!

Fleet one, 60 points, Fire and Steel only.

Another tough one. There are exactly two crew with the helmsman ability in the entire set, and only one with the explorer ability.

Trinity(15)+Victor De Alva, Luis Zuan, cannoneer, oarsman (8+2+2+1)

Morning Star(9)

HMS Ram(6)+Lord…[Read more]

Two fleets from the QotD on FB! Rise of the Fiends, 60 points. This one was both exciting to do and frustrating.

Fleet one:

San Cristobal(15)+ Luis Zuan ,helmsman, explorer(2+2+1)

Bazana–Diablo(8–7)+captain, helmsman(3+2)

San Estaban(9)+ Dominic Freda, helmsman(4+2)

UT: Blood Money

Strictly speaking, this is a 55 point fleet. You…[Read more]

Another QotD fleet! Frozen North this time, 60 points.

La Dijon(8)+ Silver explorer(3)

Marie Antoinette(14)+ Amiral Louis Cartier, captain(7+3)

Jaguar’s Spirit(12)+Gunner, capt, cannoneer(3+3+2)

El Hambre(5)

UT: Runes of Death

Another tough one, as only the Vikings got a helmsman crew, and they’re far too expensive for my liking.…[Read more]

All of these ships have the names of cities out here in the PNW.

Really? There’s a place called Black Diamond?

Why do you have Jonah on the Diamond? From the look of it Le Requin and crew will fit on her without going over the point limit of the ship.

QotD keeps on going and I keep on answering. 60 points, Disney Pirates of the Caribbean only. This one required some serious thinking as there are no generic crew in Disney Pirates, everyone is a named crew. 0.0 That said, here is the fleet I came up with:

Grand Barnacle(13)+Bootstrap Bill Turner, Ragetti(2+1)

Black Pearl(17)+Captain Barbossa,…[Read more]
