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.

I probably will do something like that, it’s been used in CoEC. A faction got the six ability and used it to cancel out Nemo’s Plans.

Thanks. I may specify and retcon this one to be ships and crew only

The full UT ability, from the Customs database:

Once at the beginning of each of your turns roll a d6. On a 1-3 all of your ships get +1 to their cannon and boarding rolls against all targets. On a 4-5 one ship in you fleet may be given an extra action. On a 6 cancel any one…

Thanks woelf, a bunch of this is relevant to CoEC.

Another odd one, and less of a question, more help with clarification.

“On a 6 cancel any one ability in play until the beginning of your next turn.”

This is from a custom UT of mine. The way it is worded, could it be used to cancel the ability of a UT, if it was face-up?

Rules announcement. Ships, crew, and some other pieces from the Unreleased section of the Master Spreadsheet are now viable for use in the game.

Nice report. For future games I’d recommend including more helmsmen crew in fleets. Speed is key.

Apologies for another post, but things keep coming up.

The Gem of Hades/Red Skull changes the ship and crew that find it to Cursed, the code says that crew that are placed on the ship after become cursed, but revert back to their original nationality if they are removed from the ship. If the treasure is removed from the ship in question, would…[Read more]

Another weird situation.

A ship finds Cross of Coronado and Nemo’s Plans. An opposing ship targets that ship with a Broadsides Attack. Can the Cross of Coronado be used to ignore the hits from the Broadsides Attack, or would BA cut through any protection that the UT would provide?

Two questions, kind of

Let’s say that someone had a field day with Captain Nemo, captured a bunch of crew. The ship Nemo is on gets captured, ala the Harbinger from Spanish Main. Nemo’s ship had the SAC ability on it. The person who captured Nemo’s ship then builds the Devil’s Maw fort. Can the person who captured Nemo use the SAC ability on his…[Read more]

Yeah, the English should have had a larger, more diverse fleet. If he really wanted to keep the Endeavor, then he should have used some of the cheaper English options, like the Hound or the Dover, it would have helped round out the starting fleet.

This report has had some of my favorite “sunlight” shots so far.

Indeed, you and I have made large…[Read more]

Brace yourselves, Report 2 is now up!

Question about Native Canoes; since they have no masts, and cannot be assigned crew,  if they went through a whirlpool and rolled badly, you’d HAVE to eliminate a treasure that they were carrying, yes?

Thanks for watching!

That was my thoughts as well when the English controller put together their starting fleet.

I too was a little upset at the loss of Smaug, since I didn’t think the French would get their EA/SAT rolls….
