Given the minimal cargo space, I don’t think that the Ascent will ever have treasure on her. I suppose there’s a possibility of a UT or two finding their way on board, which would count as a treasure, but again I don’t think the odds of that happening are high.

I’d probably put a captain and helmsman, with an oarsman on her, nice little support…[Read more]

Ooohh. I like those Cursed. 😀 The Combustion seems like a good gunship, even without her extra flame abilities. I’d love to find a way to get an eternal crew on her, to keep her coming back for more, even if she’s scuttled.

Flame Fiend is very cool, though I’m not sue I’d put him on his linked ship. S-Board and boarding in general are useful…[Read more]

These seem interesting, if only for the potential combinations. The Archfiend opens up all kinds of possibilities with his Jonah ability, and with 7 cargo on the Courtship, there’s enough room for all kinds of crazy possibilities.

I think I like Arella Harkins more than Barry. 😀 Her combination of abilities has more interesting potential for boarding related tactics. Whether its crew elimination, gold capture or other stuff like Nemo. Hmmm. I guess she would make a good combination with her linked crew, provided you can get them on a quick enough ship with some ample cargo…[Read more]

“Nice to see that the bored looking dude has made a comeback to something more interesting.”

What do you mean by that?

I mean that his artwork for OE makes him looked bored, in my opinion.

I just think a ship that can teleport is dumb and I can’t endorse it in any way regardless of the circumstances.

Fair points. Just a little too f…[Read more]

Oooh. I really like this pair. A nice gunship and a good utility crew for the Cursed. Nice to see that the bored looking dude has made a comeback to something more interesting. 😀

Anywho, the DP looks like a major headache to deal with, especially when a canceller finds it’s way onboard. This is one ship I’d LOVE to use.

Not a good idea,…

I really like the Stormrage, mainly because I love that ability, though I’ve never been able to pull it off on a large scale. The defensive abilities you’ve built into her will make her difficult to deal with, but her only being three masts is good, since it means that ramming becomes a more viable way of stopping her, along with all S range…[Read more]

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.
