I like the Torch. Nice little gunship, and with the first part of her ability, she’s able to be somewhat decent at it. I still don’t like that you can ram off a Turtle ships mast while she still has paneling, that distinction has relegated most of them to back-up/pinch gunships or gold runners. I think there’s only one WK turtle with ‘ramming…[Read more]

Point cost for the slash….?
Why is Judy Rodriguez 7 points? Cannoneer and helmsman are worth 4 combined, since both are 2 point abilities.
For Grayson August, small detail, but unload would sound and fit better than offload.
Arcane is straying into OP realms. I’d reccommend changing the die roll to a 6, not a 5-6, otherwise it becomes FAR too…[Read more]

It could just be a temporary glitch, since when I free type like now, the coding doesn’t show up.
Ah, crud. Spirah’s point cost right now is 13. I accidentally removed it when I edited the first post with her in it.
Double crud, seems I didn’t read my own ability text. Since I wan to keep both abilities I’ll add a two ship limit. Wording would…[Read more]

I think the issue is me copy+pasting, while in the visual tab. I’ll edit my post above to remove all of the gobbledegook.

My hypothesis is thusly: When I post the customs, I just copy and paste from a word doc. I think something happened during that process that caused your site to freak out. Also, I’m realizing now that I was typing and copy+pasting in the visual mode, and at the time, there was still a ‘preview’ box under everything. It’s possible that had…[Read more]

Very interesting ten. I’m not sure how effective or useful the terrain removing ability is/could be, but it sounds really cool. The secondary ability is cool, if difficult to use naturally. You could find a way to get Nemo’s Plans+ Rune UT to spam 6’s and move entire squadrons away from her when she gets in trouble.
I don’t know which Cursed crew…[Read more]

All righty, changes on the way for Krahta. About four more ships left for the Cursed/Makuta before we get to their crew.

Good points there about the Krahta. Would limiting it to once per game be a decent enough ‘fix’ or would re-doing it from the stats up be a better way to go?
Yeah, once per game seems like a good fix.
Okay then, how’s this for wording:
Once per game choose one ship within S of this ship. Roll a d6. On a result of 6 place one Uni…[Read more]

Now that I look at it again, Krahta is actually just OP. You can just park friendly ships next to it until you get the inevitable Nemo’s Plans + X UT (Runes of Thor for unlimited AA’s/etc), not to mention various other combos like Neptune’s Trident. It’s actually just broken. I was trying to look at it from a gimmick/enemy perspective with th…

Krahta by itself isn’t very good I’d think. Even with the Makuta keyword giving her +2 to her cannon rolls, it’s still a sea monster, although somewhat faster than most. Her main draw is her UT ability, which you could try and spam with friendly ships, to get UT’s as you mentioned.
I feel that the Fallen Angel would be some kind of hybrid, since…[Read more]

I think the Moonscape is best as a scout hybrid. The Mercs have better dedicated gold runners and gunships around or below the same cost.
Good point, they do have better gunships, though I’m hard pressed to think of any decent gold runners for the mercs. 😀
My initial thought on the Rod was that is was very powerful, but I re-read it and I…[Read more]

Moonscape is interesting. I’m not sure how often the last part of her ability will come into play, as outside of campaigns there usually isn’t a whole lot of terrain and islands usually don’t get that close to each other, even if they’re Great Turtles :D.
That aside, this is a nice two way ship. You could very easily make her a gunship, given…[Read more]

I posted above today’s post with some questions about your customs.
Not quite sure what you’re talking about, unless it’s the post with the reactions to Snetrak and Trygla.
Speaking of, yes. Sentrak is supposed to be able to target enemy ships. He forces them into a ghostly state for two turns maximum.
Trygla is actually a he…. Yeah his a…[Read more]

Not a bad little gunship there in the Frost. Not a lot of point space to put more than one named crew, and I notice she’s not a longship. Very interesting. I’ll be posting the first Cursed pieces later today.

The dual nationality thing is really interesting. I’d love to see how that is handled during a campaign. Question though, why does he have black mark, since he’s already able to use his abilities on Cursed ships due to his dual nationality.
I really like the Wrath. Good speed for a 5, and decent cargo too. With her combination of abilities, I’d…[Read more]
