Report 12 is now up! Crazy stuff is happening!

I just realized you posted Report 10 exactly one year after your first posted the intro thread on PwB.

Hopefully that won’t happen for the 21 game…..

at the end of 11 turns right, not this current round?

Yes….. did it seem like I implied otherwise?

Do any of those “reset” the timer, or is the three turn restriction a hard limit?   Does it refer to the most recent user’s turn only, or all player turns?

Good questions! I think it should be a hard limit. If the Treasure changes ships or somehow changes ownership, it still can’t be used until the initial 3 turns have expired.

So which custom ships do you like better? The wooden variety from Cloud of Craft? Or the 3D printed versions offered by Vulkan?

Tough question. I really like what I’ve seen and received from Vulkan, but I also quite like the wooden ships made by cloud of craft. Vulkan’s selection seems limited; cloud of craft doesn’t really have colored-in ships…[Read more]

We’re back……

Century of Economy 2020, Report 10 is now up!

You might have annoyed someone with the automated messages comment. 😀 The second one though….. Huh? I thought they had the rights, or had part of the rights.

A re-work of the Olmak UT

Olmak

Ability: Load this treasure face-down. Give this ship a move action but do not move her. Instead reveal this treasure and dock this ship at any wild island. Turn this treasure face-down, it cannot be used for three turns.

I’m not sure if this is better or worse than the previous version, but this is closer to…[Read more]

Kinda think I might like to use The Olmak though… XD

It’s getting a re-work to function more like the Necklace of the Sky. I’ll post it later. 😀

Interesting, would creating a house-rule that allowed for Sea Monsters (or creatures for that matter) to have treasure transferred to them be game-breaking or inherently unfair in any way that you can imagine?

Nifty idea, I’m quite intrigued by that ability. I could absolutely see it being use or abused in a campaign setting with a SAC captain.

Silly question, but a Sea Monster that has cargo space can have treasure transferred to it, correct?

@Woelf

We’re already thinking of re-wording the Olmak to be similar to the Necklace of the Sky from SS. I suppose that the Ignika could be abused on a SAC build ship, but you’d still need to get good rolls, which rarely a guarantee.

Do people care much about flavor text on custom pieces?

I think the Olmak is more powerful than the Ignika. A string of bad rolls with the Ignika will leave you with no crew.

Thinking about their source material, I think the Olmak needs to change. Something like docking the ship at an island, similar to Necklace of the Sky from SS.

I’d like to be able to trade them for cards we’re missing from the checklist.

Which checklist? Ocean’s Edge (OE) specifically or in general?

There was some discussion about it on the Discord server. Does the treasure have to be random? How is it handled in a multi-player game? Do the Who Picks rules apply to the ability? As in, does the person being raided choose which treasure the raider takes?

I was also surprised by how high some of the auctions got – F&S going for a whole $300 more than SCS was maybe the craziest thing to me.

The FS set had ALL the LE things. All the Morning Stars and Sea Lizards, plus the historical pirates pack, Raptor Maw, Chum Maker and more. I suspect that’s why it went for so much.

Where in the Code is the home island raiding ability covered?

“This ship may dock at an enemy home island and load one treasure. If able, she must leave on your next turn.”

I’ve looked in the code and can’t find a specific entry for this ability or the few variants of it. Am I just not seeing it?
