Hmmmm. I’m kind of all the above. 😀 I enjoy the big epic games, but I also like the smaller games with a point limit. I’ve played scenarios, gone for brutal efficiency, just for laughs, and somewhere in between more than once. So final assessment…… Whichever way the wind blows. 😀

I like Oliver Blackburn, Broadsides with no cargo taken up? sounds like a nice deal to me. His cost of 6 is probably ok. WK had some Broadsides Attack crew at that cost, which many thought was too much. His additional ability I think is worth it though I think.

I made a crew like Nick Nautilus, and I think i costed him the same, but a combo crew…[Read more]

I think you still could link the Neverland to Slank, I wouldn’t mind that.

The ship itself seems a little too good, or too optimizable. You could very easily make this a capable hybrid, especially with  those cannons and base move. This is one instance where the Armed Merchant keyword might be beneficial, since the free shot can happen at…[Read more]

Both of those Pirate guys look ok. The SAC-Captain combo is worth 5 according to WK, but 7 is fine, since the Pirates ALREADY have at least two crew that do that at 5 points, so Slank at 7 is fine.

Going back to the Sacrifice, adjusting he cost is going to be tricky I think. She has incredible speed, and would make an excellent flotilla tug, but…[Read more]

Gut reaction, the Calamity should ave L range, not S+S, simply for sake of measurement purposes.

Sacrifice could be a few points less, maybe.

Line of battle is one that I’ve used and seen used in my Summer campaigns. After seeing how its been used in the Experimental cumulative game and in 6×150, I want to try out wind rules.

One that I’ve seen used somewhat indirectly is the power of purse/purchase, especially in campaigns. One faction gets or has so much gold saved or stocked up…[Read more]

Some of the fleets had trouble with deck-plate space, the Cursed, French and English especially. The Americans had the entire underside of the southern ocean to put their deck-plates, and the Spanish had a table to the east, that I think can be seen sometimes in the longer shots.

The French- Pirate conflict is more or less over. The French are…[Read more]

Yay, Aistel has appeared! I’m not sure if he’s overcosted or not, since Papa Doc the original crew possessor is 8 points, but could be too expensive himself. That’s one of those discussions I’m not as up to date on. If the CP ability is okay at 8 then Aistel might be fine, since Eternal=2 points and Fear=1-2 points.

Eternal Curse looks verrrry…[Read more]

I maintain that changing the ability of the Agramon to more resemble that of one of the two Kraken’s or Cursed Captain Jack would be better.

“A7xfanben”

If you’re looking for a point cost on the Agramon, I think 30 would be a minimum place to start at.

The one from his fist post had a point cost of 25. With the original ability that’s u…[Read more]

SOMEONE will be like: “This one says Captain; and that one doesn’t” (no one here; but someone, somewhere would)

The people that use customs regularly are you, me, Gingerninja, and Ben. I’ve not head of many other people using custom ships, much less ones that we’ve made. I understand your concern, but the people who will ACTUALLY USE THIS SHIP…[Read more]

I like most of the edits to the previously posted ships, but i would still like to see a larger cargo hold on the Ravener. 😀

Either version of Lilith is beyond powerful. I’ve seen and experienced firsthand how giving all ships a keyword or two can affect game-play, especially in campaigns. I think you might be better off making her like Roberto…[Read more]

Suppose the ability was changed to either match or resemble the ability of The Kraken, or Cursed Captain Jack. Would it be less broken then?

I hope ALL customs are available for next year’s game (or the next one overall), so factions won’t run out of ships to launch.

I intentionally limited it this year so that Custom stuff wouldn’t get used too much over the regular stuff. Furthermore, I only have models for my own sets, so Custom stuff that you or Caz or someone else has mad…[Read more]

So let me know your thoughts on the Phantom

I’m flattered that you remade one of my ships, but dude. 0.0 removing Eternal is probably wise, as well as bumping the cost up to around 26-30. The original version of the Phantom probably should have been around 20, and this version takes it up a notch and half$

Don’t get me wrong, I like this version,…[Read more]

I think what happens to the cargo should be specified to avoid confusion (also removed from play?).

I don’t think it confusing. If the ship is removed from play, so would the cargo, no questions about where it goes or anything.

I don’t think you need the part in parentheses.

I agree. Any ability that affects other ships (unless specified) a…[Read more]

And the points on Christopher seem accurate to me? Not sure what you’re asking here.

just tying to confirm the cost of the Demon keyword. Fear isn’t’ very good the way it is worded or the way that WK priced it. I’ve gotten away with it at 1 point a couple times, but I think its worth 2. Eternal had a couple fluctuations in point cost, but it’s a 2…[Read more]

I like the idea of the Alkahest, putting a twist on the copying ability. That said, I think it should be a couple points more, mainly because of the last line of text and the abilities of Demon.

I think the range of the Agramon’s range should be reduced to a single segment, either L or S. S+S sounds nice, but is tricky to measure, especially if…[Read more]

We’re building toward the finale, Report 16 is here!

If you like it the way it is, then keep it that way. If you want to you can make a more accurate representation of one using the actual name of an Acclamator II. I’ll help ya find one.
