The log for pirate ship Blood Raven

[Andy Blozinski]

Give Andy Roberts credit for actually making the Black Pearl log for Jim (Nightmoss). Marc (Jack Tar) graciously sent Jim's file to me both as a Powerpoint and as a photo file. All I did was copy and paste (from MS Paint) using his file into Powerpoint and did a few straight text inserts (the font is actually called Rapscallion).
Did you notice how the damaged gun factors are the reverse pattern of what they normally are? I used the HMS Sybille from Wave 2 as my basis, but reversed the half broadside factors so the higher of the two is always at the front, instead of the back. This was a vague attempt to simulate an emphasis on bow chaser guns. That's also why I'm considering Hollywood-ing it up and switching to the slightly faster A deck (it's supposed to be an E deck). This would make it much more of a pursuit ship.
I'm only halfway done with the ship card. I still need to lower the veer rating. The Taken Aback red zone is smaller as the card was originally made for a C deck ship. I'm probably going to leave it there. This even more emphasizes it as a pursuit ship that has Hollywood capabilities beyond what it realistically should.

Here's the Crimson Permanent Assurance (It's a Monty Python Reference). The "A" and "E" deck swap for this ship would be the exact opposite of the Blood Raven:
