I’d love to see an aircraft carrier someday.
I toured one in 2010, went to see the Midway in San Diego. Was quite interesting, the ceilings and doorways were all really low, and since I’m about 6 foot even I had to duck everywhere I went. 😀

Originally, yes, Makuta is supposed to bring in crew from outside the game. However, I like the redistributing idea. Would look like:
Once at the beginning of each of your turns roll a d6. On a result of 4-6 place any crew with a point cost of 4 or less in play on this ship. It’s nationality changes to match the nationality of this ship.O_O Wow…

I can adjust the keyword cost no problem, but then it would have some ramifications for the ships, since ALL of them also have the Makuta keyword. Changing it to 7 is probably what I’ll do, so that makes Chirox seven points, and jumps Antroz 12. I’ll go through my word doc and add 2 to every remaining crew yet posted, some of them could still be…[Read more]

This was the fleet description for my entry to the ‘City of Gold’ fleet challenge on MT. In the actual fleet, links were inserted into places to make reference to the other fleets participating, past challenges, and other game pieces WK official and Custom. For example, when Hammersmith talks about ‘John’, he’s referring to a custom pirate crew…[Read more]

Giving him Ransom won’t solve the problem, since most people don’t USE the gold capture ability. I’d much rather see ‘This ship gets +1 cargo spaces. This crew takes up no cargo space’ instead of Cargo Master, and he can keep the rest of his abilities, including Ransom.
Judy should stay as a Helmsman/cannoneer combo. I feel that Repeating Guns…[Read more]

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.

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]

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]
