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]

I really like the Talindurum, cool pairing of abilities.

Raidamos is good as well, I love seeing the Eternal ability. 😀 I’m not positive, but I think he’s made an appearance in SS.

Batreans is interesting. There isn’t a bombardier like he, even among customs. I’d love to see her used in a game, big or small.

Interesting ship, turning what the Cursed have been historically decent at (boarding) into a potential drawback. Given that boarding ability, I’d try to not board as often as possible with the PC, which could be difficult, given that the Cursed have a limited amount of true capital ships at their disposal. In a campaign, I imagine this would be…[Read more]

I like the Topaz, seems like an interesting hybrid option for the Mercs. He speed and ability would help he hunt down the smaller one and two mast gold runners, and the mercs have plenty of fun crew to use in boarding situations.

Considering how bereft the Vikings are for extra actions, I don’t think this Paladin is OP. He seems like a leader crew, perfect for campaigns.

Yikes, I would not want to be boarded by that thing. The fist five cannons are decent, if S range, and after that they’re not so good, essentially making this a 5 mast ship with a +5 boarding built in. I think the low cargo (for a ten) will help keep this from getting overly unfair, as will the extraordinary high cost.

It has been since February…

Looking forward to seeing it!

Hmmm, that would confuse me in a game.

PS: Let’s play CG4!

But it’s not currently my turn…….?

Wow, some interesting combos for sure. I’m tying to imagine what a five mast ‘galley’ would look like. I’m assuming its basically a 5 with slots for oars, and retains all the other abilities of a galley, such as inability to be pinned, and the stern turn. Hmmm. If anyone wanted to try and construct it, they could even try to have the masts set at…[Read more]

I like this Queen’s Ghost, combining Ghost ship with a high base move is always fun to see. I also like her home island aiding ability, though I’m upset she doesn’t have more cargo. I suppose giving her more would make her more expensive though, and she’s already fairly expensive for a two mast ship.

I’m still not sue how I feel about dual nationality crew, at least when they’re part mercenary. I don’t see it as pat of his abilities, so I’m assuming he doesn’t have Ex-Pat?
