Great game!!!

Addicting as hell.

I've got my students here at school playing it as well. It's great to use it for lesson plans in History and for Math. Best part is I make the "talk like a Pirate" during the games. Absolutely hilarious. We put 2-3 large tables together and play with islands, fog banks, forts, the whole 9. It looks like a miniature naval expedition in my homeroom.

:lol:

We've been collecting Spanish Main, Crimson Coast, and Revolution.

We've been getting alot of doubles. Anybody up for a trade, etc?

Make that Wizkids are (soon to be) on there fourth expansion, and still no Dutch. There's Spanish Main, Crimson Coast, American Rev, and soon to be released Barbary Coast.

I agree. Putting Americans in the mix is just... silly. But the game is still fun. And it is just a game. Not history. Just stick pirate flags on the back of the American, or Dutch flags!!!

Hey Merc, fleet of four eh? Which 4?

I have a bunch of ships that I would be willing to trade.

Right on.

Why don't we look over our "navies" and start a "wanted" or or "trade" thread (or do it here?)

Lets see . . . i have El Corazon Del Mar - my only spanish ship, El Ladron and Longshanks are my pirate ships and the HMS Albion

I use them to plan strategies for sea battles in my stories.

I got my first pack at FYE (where the lady tried saving me) and my second at K-mart. Going back for more later.

Yes I have duplicates. Yes I would be willing to trade. Hell, I'd be willing to GIVE AWAY a few to make room for more.

Extras all from Spanish Main expansion (with # of cards in ship set):

HMS Gallowgass (2 - Brit)

HMS Plantagenet (2 - Brit)

La Joya Del Sol (3 - Spanish)

La Repulsa (1 - Spanish)

El Duque (2 - Spanish)

Darkhawk II (3 - Pirate)

Greyhound (2 - Pirate)

Commandante Luis De Alva (Spanish)

Joaquin Vega / Rogelio Vazquez (Spanish)

I am sure some of these are "common" cards, judging by others' "extras" lists as well as what my kids have in their sets.

I also have craploads of crew cards, but not neccesarily from every country. Don't offer me no stinkin' islands in trade...

WANTED: I am looking for El Fantasma (Pirate ghost captain card; I'll take him from ANY of the issued sets)

Any takers?

Most appreciative!!

I'll send it right away.

I have a friend who has an "in" at the local gaming store. Apparently he may be able to get some "rares" and "uncommons". I've just started gaming, so I couldn't tell you what is what, but if you guys know something particular you are looking for, let me know and I'll see what I can do.

I'm willing to trade away all my Brits, Spanish pig-dogs, and French Bastards for more Pirates or Americans.

I'll find my lists... this will take a long, long time...

My search has ended. Last night I picked up several packs of cards at the mall (And thanks to you all! We did not know that the Revolution edition had been released until I read it here yesterday)

The last pack I opened contained my long-awaited El Phantasma card! My pirate armada is complete!

Er... still open to barter with all of ye scallawags... I just don't need THAT card anymore.

Greetings all,

I have been reading this thread with some interest. I thought I would post some photos of a game board that I recently made.

My name is Dana Geraths, I own Geraths Design, a small exhibit design and construction company in Salem, OR.

My family recently got interested in this great little game; However, I was not terribly interested in playing it on a plain old kitchen table... no charm at all.

So, to fix that problem I spend a couple of days in my shop and built the board shown below. I thought that some of you would like to see what the finished product looks like. It measures 3' x 3' feet.
