Good news, Report 5 is here!

Bad news, due to some IRL stuff involving my camera I’ve been forced to go on a little hiatus from game-play. I should be able to get it resolved quickly and get back to game-play before the week is out.

I’ll throw in my thoughts as well. Do not mail a ship built, ever. It’s just asking for trouble. It’s better to take them apart and put them into bags (snack sized or similar). For packing, I’ve not used packing peanuts much as they and bubble wrap are not ideal for sending miniatures. Both tend to not absorb impacts and will exert force on…[Read more]

can we creat our own nation with ships here?

I’ve done that at least twice so sure, go ahead.

First option, within 3L of the ship the Matatu is on.

Jeez, that is a huge lot of stuff.

@Ochobrazo2298, Sorry mate but Ochobrazo doesn’t exist. 🙁 As I’ve heard it he was supposed to be in Rise of the Fiends, even appears on the Checklist, but didn’t make a showing. He got moved to the Savage Shores set but when that set was split in two parts, he didn’t make it into either half. His stats are visible in the Master Spreadsheet under…[Read more]

Another tidbit for ya.

Carbon Charlie was a crew from Spanish Main, English and cost 3 points. he lets you turn one treasure on your home island into a cannon for the ship he’s on. In order to use him though, the same ship needs to be docked at your home island.

This ability appeared later on Ships, but never again on a crew made by WK.

Oooh. Yeah he’s powerful. I’ve finally gotten my hands on the SR pack from DPotC, so he could show up at some point in the summer game, if the pirates ever feel like he’s necessary.

It’s overpowered indeed.  Which is part of why I went after him in VASSAL Campaign Game 1.

Which crew? I didn’t see mention of them in the original post.

This sounds like a decent idea or scenario for a campaign, but it needs a wee bit of modifying, especially when custom ships are taken into account.

The Cursed did get their hands on Favor of the Gods, and used it. Since then till now no event has been played, even though the Pirates still have two of them on their island….

Its even better for the Pirates since the Treasure ship can move S after loading or UNLOADING cargo at a home island.

The Pirate controller told me he didn’t want to use Events, but he said he felt forced to in order to get around the Phantom. I don’t exclusively ban them for games like this, it’s just that my brothers and I typically don’t use…[Read more]

Steady all hands, Report 4 is here!

@Avery, nice. I did see those on the FB group and left a few thoughts there. You can also put the links in the Custom Ships Organized thread, so that they don’t “get lost” in this thread.

This is a fascinating concept, can’t wait to see more.

Am I taking this Soul Split keyword/ability to mean that I could fire on friendly ships?

Glad you enjoy them. More on the way. 😀

That idea of launching English stuff but for the Spanish was tossed around. For this year I’m not allowing it but perhaps next year if a faction is eliminated…. Heck, maybe we could throw that into CG4.

The idea the Cursed had with Plague was to have Squalo ram a ship, and then have another Sea Monster ram the same ship to take the Plague back.…[Read more]

Soooo. Took a week off from reports. Which means I’m backlogged. Again. At least I’ve got footage/pictures 😀

Anyway, moping aside, Report 3 is now up!

Additional house rule. 0 point LIMIT re-roll crew do not have the Limit keyword, but retain all other abilities.
