JH seems like a good gold runner/gatherer. I really like the Cove, nifty ability and nice flavor text too.

When this ship docks at an island, eliminate all non-Cursed crew with a point cost of 2 or less from the island.

just thought of something potentially viable for this, combine it with a home island raider, or some other ability that would let you dock at an enemy home island. 😀

No, it would be instead of, similar to how the Massacre ability works.

Oh, right. Duh.

Would the main boarding ability be in addition to any other possible boarding win options? Would the SoI be able to use that ability and then either take or eliminate a treasure and eliminate another crew?

I’m not sue how often that second ability will come into play, since I don’t know of anyone who leaves large numbers of crew on an island. I…[Read more]

I’m more or less finished with custom stuff, Spherus Magna was the last. I’ll have to get JW’s case to post stuff. 😀

In terms of feedback, I’ve more or less adopted you approach, no word means I think its fine/cool etc.

Anywho, can’t wait to see the next ten!

I really like the last two entries. Both the Seal and Peliel are nice options for 40 point to 60 point games, or stating fleets for a campaign. I especially like the speed on the Peliel, very nice.

Interesting Hoist. That ability alone makes her interesting, never mind he speed or cargo. At S+S she’s decently quick, but 4 cargo isn’t much, which means you need to be selective about what crew you put on her. Her L-range immunity makes he well-defended, since thee are so many ships with L-range cannons.

Can’t wait to see her linked crew.

Speaking of funky, the Fiesta is very odd. Why does she have the ‘crew of any nationality’ if crew can’t use their abilities on he anyway, what would stop you from putting non-Spanish crew on her?

Captain Zamos is interesting, I’ve not seen many Spanish WH/Captains, other than the one that WK made.

Nice fort, similar name to one of…[Read more]

Surprised you didn’t react to the Rage of Atlantis (no problem, just figured you’d find it interesting); I may just make her Cursed.

I do find he interesting, just didn’t have anything to say about he when she was posted. This is one of the few times I’d ague against making a ship Cursed. Given the huge amount of custom stuff they’ve already got…[Read more]

Flavor text kinda makes me want to see the Bilnami as a Junk. 😀 not very good cannons, but decent speed and a built in explorer, all for the cheap cost of 10 points. I think I’d toss on a helmsman and be done with her, she’s perfect for 40-50 point games.

Another nice looking ship. Gotta love that speed, and the cannons aren’t that bad, especially with extended range. In a regular pointed game, this is a nice gunship option, in campaigns and whatnot, I think she’d still see use as a gunship, but would be on the outskirts of formations, away from the capital ship fighting.

As is often the case,…[Read more]

I really like the Legacy. Interesting combination of keywords. I feel that any six mast with predominately decent cannons will wind up being fielded as some kind of gunship, regardless of cargo and speed. 😀

Interesting ten. Not very fast, and cannons are not so accurate. However, the boarding bonus is very nice. This would pair nicely with a Gold-Capture crew or Captain Nemo, who could then feed his captives to Havana Black. Furthermore, this is Pirate. The Pirates have TONS of great crew, with wold hates, SAT/EA and other nice options. It would be…[Read more]

If I’m understanding this correctly, Gojira may shoot only one cannon on a shoot action that has twice the normal range, that if it hits does not eliminate a mast from the target ship, but instead gives the target ship a firemast.

Is that about right?

For the sake of forum speed and potential quoting/unresolved site issues (sorry, hope to resolve sometime!), I’d prefer if people didn’t post a ton of pictures within their posts.  But you can also link to the picture as you would a regular link that should open in a new tab, same for albums.

Allright, I see the picture icon, I’ll see if I can…[Read more]

Yeah exactly,ive already made a seamonster with some thin cardstock but I would love to hear or see other methods(cost is a big factor since I don’t wanna buy more ships unless their like 50cents)

I’ve experimented with cardboard and very thin balsa wood. I’ve managed to put together a regular 4 mast with each material, but using duplicate ships i…[Read more]

Ive also been wondering what everyone uses for their custom ships

Are you referring to what we use to make physical copies of the ships and crew we create, or something else?

Also, welcome aboard!

I was busy yesterday and didn’t really look at the Duchesse, but looking now I really like that ship. Ability aside, he base speed and good cannons already make he a ‘speedy’ gunship, and as has been said time and again, speed mattes.

What I find most interesting is the link. Any and all named captains can link to this ship. That’s quite a lot of…[Read more]

I really like this combo of the CB and Spetner. He’ll link to the ship, and therefore not take up cargo space, leaving the Bay with 5 open spots, 4 after adding a helmsman. If you decide to include an explorer, her hold is reduced somewhat, but still effective as a hybrid like ship.

Skyme and Hawkins are linked too, so they work well together, though they’re pricey.

Due to how the linking rules wok, the Spanish main version of Skyme will only link to the Spanish main version of Jack Hawkins, since his link text specifies ‘Captain Jack Hawkins’ and thee are no other ‘Captain Jack Hawkins’, just Jack Hawkins.

However, you m…[Read more]
