@Xerecs: ok, I will keep the WK phrasing in mind from now on. Although when I write the keyword abilities in posts, I’m actually copying and pasting them from my Google Doc. So I’ll try to edit the wording in the keyword texts in my Docs.

@Ben: ok, I can fix the Baron’s point cost no problem. Given what the Tiger Lily does, I was honestly more…[Read more]

@Xerecs: It says “former slaves” in the first sentence of the ship’s flavor text, so I’m not going to worry about every iteration.

Cargo Space: 5
Base Move: L

Flavor text: Truly an oddity, this rare French junk is constantly confusing enemies. She…[Read more]

@Ben, So leave him as-is for now then? Or go with Xerecs’s idea about him?

@Xerecs, Maybe something like “When this ship hits another ship you chose what mast is eliminated”?

Hello everyone!
We have reached the last post of Spanish from the Seas of Doom!

Relevant Keywords:

Reverse Captain: After completing a shoot action, this ship may move as…[Read more]

@Ben: So, I’m thinking I’ll add one of these: Filching Gold, or “This ship gets +1 to cannon rolls. She gets +2 if she initiates the board attempt”

@Xerecs: I’m pretty sure all of Dark Tides (PoDT) has been posted, but I don’t use spreadsheets… 😅😅
I’m not sure about sharing a Google Doc, seeing as the original draft for PoDT got randomly…[Read more]

@Xerecs: While I am working on numerous sets, I do mention at the end, that after the next couple of Spanish posts, I’ll move on to the next faction in Seas of Doom. Also, I may be weird, but I’m not gonna randomly stop in the middle of Seas of Doom to begin one of the last factions (because Spain is usually one of the last ones I make) of another…[Read more]

@Xerecs: I could swap the Resuelto’s second ability with that of a different, currently unreleased ship to just make her a pirate-hater?

And the point cost of the Serenata can be raised. You suggest 18 points?

-Darkhurst

@Xerecs: Catapult is definitely better, but I feel it should be 2 points. I’d try to use it on an island, but it strikes me as slightly worse than a musketeer. I think a cost of 2 would allow it to see more usage.

On the other hand, I’ve realized that Ballista is OP. On a 10 master, you can easily gain TEN extra 3L cannons for just 5 points!…[Read more]

@Xerecs: Between that and Loyal, somewhat of a negative.  However, I don’t really think Sniping is very valuable.  It sounds better than it works.  It could be amazing on something like the Naegling though. My bad for not posting the ability with the “new keyword”. [You may double the range of this ship’s cannons each turn, but you must roll a 6…[Read more]

@Xerecs: I like the Roxtus fort.  Makeza seems an interesting set of ideas for the assassin concept.  Roodaka seems powerful but a bit strange.  I wouldn’t want to keep track of that ability occurring multiple times… how does it work?  I imagined it like some kind of liquid that gets poured into where the mast is and hardening to prevent any fut…[Read more]

@Xerecs: For Makuta, that’s far less OP and actually far more interesting to me.  Playtesting would be required to determine a decent cost though.

Pacifica
Faction Affiliation: Spanish
Rarity: R
Type: Ship
Point Value: 20
Number of Masts: 5
Cargo Space: 5
Base Move: S+S
Cannons: 3S-3S-3S-3S-3S
Ability: Secret Hold. S-Explorer. Ship treasure…[Read more]

@Xerecs: Oops, Pentheus has always been 9 points!  Edited his post.

Vamprah is OP as I could have expected… it’s a little tiring to see so many new/amazing abilities with no cap after it’s clear that capping these range/unlimited abilities is one of the best solutions for them.  Between the Makuta keyword and his final ability, he’s almost g…[Read more]

@Xerecs: I’ve made an edit to the site that has changed the formatting toolbar for posts.  It’s now showing a Visual and a Text option.  I like the Visual one because it allows you to see exactly what you’re doing when you do it, and therefore I just disabled the preview plugin because the Visual editor option means that previewing posts is u…[Read more]

@Xerecs: That wording looks good, and I think the Krahta could be 15 points in that case.

@Xerecs: All three IMO. The cargo is extremely important with canoes; one set of those could be a gold running powerhouse even without factoring the auto Captain into play. 10 cargo spaces for 13 points with plenty of speed and the possibility of five 4S shots in addition to that – very impressive. The Star Chaser is less OP than most other…[Read more]

Hello, thanks for the feedback! 🙂

@xerecs: I see your point and I was considering changing it to read “Ability text on Cursed ships and crew cannot affect this ship.”

@Ben: Yes, Repeating Guns is risky, but I made it like that both for balancing purposes, and because i figured that whatever form of repeating guns existing at this time would…[Read more]

@All: Sorry for any glitches in the forum such as the tag buttons disappearing; I’m trying to optimize the site and sometimes plugins disable things unfortunately.

@Xerecs (wow, looks like doing that automatically links to a member’s page, nice! XD)
Mhak: We’ve seen that ability too much already; I find it hard to believe there is some flavor…[Read more]
