    You mean the 5 veer taken aback card? I answered my own question in the 2nd post. We initially missed the part in the rules that said to place it at the stern slot of the base for 2nd hourglass,...

    Here's another QRS on BGG. It's the best designed to date but I prefer the comprehensiveness of Zarathud's.

    Page 24 (standard rules). 1st paragraph. "Players may not check the attitude to the wind before choosing the maneuver card. They are only allowed to check the attitude during the movement phase."

    Steve (the guy who created the sheet) posted on BGG that he included that as a house rule, due to double shot being more dangerous to fire. It's not in the rulebook.

    I used a very small dot of rubber cement near the bottom of the peg. I let it dry for a minute before inserting it in the base. It provides a tight fit but you can remove it afterwards, if you need,...

    Will these be available in retail? I couldn't pony up more than $130 for the Earlybird Lt. level at the time. I was kind of banking on them being available in the retail channel.
