Description
Unleash a fire-breathing Hydra from the depths as The Cursed return to our beloved Pirates game!
This product is for unpunched cards. The last two pictures are simply to show what the pack looks like when fully built.
Disclaimers and Warnings:
-Health hazards: Styrene is a possible human carcinogen. Do not inhale it. Recommend washing hands and cleaning up area after building the ships.
-Cards are a bit messy – it is best to clean up the styrene dust after handling.
-For Ages 16+! Please let any minors know about cleaning up the styrene dust.
-When punching out the pieces, it’s best to push on the areas near where they are connected to the card via “nubs” (ex: the tops and bottoms of masts). Pushing in the middle area may result in bending or breakage.
-Please be patient when building the ships – they can be fragile.
-There may be discrepancies on slot tolerances – the ships should construct well as shown in the last pictures, but results may vary.
-Best to leave ships constructed – due to the laser burning away material, they are unlikely to go back into the cards.
-Recommended to insert some masts in isolation (mast into deck with just those two pieces, before building the full ship) – especially for masts that go into smaller decks like the quarterdecks and forecastles of the larger ships.
-Some cards may have a bit of laser burn on them.
-There are some areas where the cut is more jagged, as seen on the back of Mastaba in the second picture.
-The laser burning affects some of the artwork, as shown in the detail of the last picture.
-Some of the artwork may be slightly misaligned from front to back, due to the high level of difficulty in aligning both the printed artwork (on the physical sheet) and the cut process.
-These have had minimal playtesting and there may be rules and/or balance issues during gameplay when using them. These are unofficial game pieces, additions to the game to be used only in games where all players allow them.
-Crew artwork made with Adobe Firefly.
Contents: 5 brand-new game pieces:
-10 Masted Junk
-Hydra (new sea creature type!)
-1 Masted Sloop
-2 Named Crew
Pirates of the Epic Seas is a massive custom fantasy set made by Ben, the game’s most passionate fan. These five game pieces were carefully selected and created as a preview of what could be to come….
Each ship and creature features brand-new custom artwork fashioned over many hours of graphic design and editing. Berzerker is the wild and chaotic flagship of the bunch, captained by a vicious Overlord whose ambitions know no bounds. Pyrannus is the first hydra ever released for Pirates CSG – a fire-breathing monstrosity straight from your opponent’s worst nightmares! Mastaba represents what The Cursed are capable of: using their unnatural powers to raise mummies from Egyptian tombs!
This is a hand-crafted item with love put into each stage of its creation process. I check every slot of every ship and creature before they are deemed ready to be sold. Every decal is carefully applied. With the strength of 3D printed PLA, these are actually stronger and more durable than the ships from the original production run!
Be part of the epic Pirates CSG revival by buying your Cursed Mega Pack today!

If you want Pirates CSG to come back, buying this is one of the BEST ways to make that happen!
Custom Game Pieces:
Berzerker
Nationality: Cursed
Point Cost: 33
Masts: 10
Cargo: 5
Base Move: L
Cannons: 4L-3L-2S-2S-2S-3L-3L-4L-4S-4S
Link: Berserk Overlord
Ability: Junk. As part of a move action, this ship can initiate a boarding party against a ship up to S away from her, without having to ram; the boarded ship can’t use any boarding bonuses. You may double the range of any of this ship’s cannons each action, but if you do, that cannon must roll a 6 to hit. If this ship shoots at more than one ship during her turn, she gets +1 to her cannon rolls against any ship after the first.
Flavor Text: Some say the Berzerker would cause devastation and chaos without a single member of her crew aboard. To regular sailors, it seems as though the ship is possessed to seek and destroy. Rumors abound that the vessel is actually a terrible dragon from a mythical age brought back to life in ship form by Xenthalos himself.
Berserk Overlord
Nationality: Cursed
Point Cost: 9
Link: Berzerker
Ability: Once per turn, roll a d6. On a 1, you may give any ship in your fleet +S to her base move this turn. On a 2, you may give any ship in your fleet +L to her base move this turn. On a 3, you may give any ship in your fleet +1 to her cannon rolls this turn. On a 4, you may give this ship the same action twice. On a 5, you may give any ship in your fleet an extra action. On a 6, you may give an enemy ship an action.
Flavor Text: Occasionally mistaken for Doragon the Magnificent, the Berserk Overlord can shift into his dragon form at will. He was born in Hell, and has now risen from the depths of ocean trenches to command Cursed legions.
Pyrannus
Nationality: Cursed
Point Cost: 18
Masts: 6
Cargo: 0
Base Move: L
Cannons: 4L-3S-2S-3S-4L-3L (heads from left to right, tail at the end)
Ability: Sea Monster. Hydra. Any of this sea creature’s S-range cannons may shoot fire shots; if they do and those cannons hit, replace enemy masts with fire masts instead of eliminating them.
Hydra: A hydra is a type of sea monster. The following abilities are specific to hydras and override the Sea Monster keyword: Measure a hydra’s movement from the middle head slot on its base. Hydras may move and shoot using the same move action. A hydra may be given repair actions at sea or at any island, including while it is submerged.
Flavor Text: This infernal creature’s hellish flames burn ships to their waterline. As the legend of his terror grows, so too does the fearmongering across the seas….

Point Cost: 6
Link: Mastaba
Ability: Fear. Once per turn you may cancel the ability of one crew within S of this ship.
Flavor Text: Shock and horror consume those who have looked upon this mummy. Those who have heard the legend dare not look, for a fate worse than Medusa’s punishment awaits them….
