Excellent, a well-deserved promotion. Congratulations, sir! :drinks:
Vey nice, thanks for the great report! Hmmm... where is my cake?
Great to hear this is working as expected (or should I say "as hoped for"?).
And yes, it does need scenario-specific rules for moving off land. Note that the official rules don't allow for that....
I feel for you and your loss. My beloved cat died this spring (cancer) and I still miss her a lot. :sad:
After GenCon this is up to 22. :P
Thanks, everybody! Here, have a round of grog... :beer:
As discussed in the recent AAR of the Treasure Island scenario, the current AI - while doing an admirable job to maneuver for battle - is not very good at reaching a fixed point on the map. I've...
Indeed some wonderful mats. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for all the answers guys, I'll be trying to come up with some suggestions for "moving towards a fixed point" rules.
As for the 3 treasure reward, why don't simply say:
"a. Recover 1 to 3...
Great report Fred. Did you escape on turn 15, or even earlier?
Indeed, thanks for sharing the photos, she's a real beauty.
I visited here a few years ago, but didn't have a camera with me. Great seeing these. :-)
Alright, freshly back from GenCon I tackled the August solo mission. Lt. Commander Alan James Ball, commanding the frigate HMS Terpsichore, sailed out into the Caribbean to search for reported pirate...
Thanks, I made it back home after all, with "only" 6 hours delay. First time I've ever landed among the flashing lights of emergency vehicles and fire engines. But it seems there wasn't any immediate...
Yeah, it was two 1St rates squaring off.
Great meeting you, Jim and thanks to Tommy for bringing his ships so we could play!
I'm currently stuck at Charlotte airport, because my plane to...
Sounds really intriguing, I'm looking forward to trying it.
Quick question: When the rules say the AI sails towards the nearest treasure point, that means they treat the counter as the "enemy...
Thanks everyone for making me feel positively thrifty. With a Captain KS and no additional ships yet, I'm at a modest 16 ships. :D
Yeah, she looks gorgeous indeed. :thumbsup:
Thank you! I used Photoshop to edit and composite the pictures. I use it for work quite a bit, making me fairly proficient.
I took the "On Equal Terms" scenario from the historical collection and ran it using the solo rules. My, a frigate vs frigate battle can take some time (31 rounds)!
I've created an AAR in...
Very interesting to see a game what went the other way! Thanks for the report. :beer:
Thanks, everybody! :)
Indeed we do! :)
I have a question regarding the "AI taken aback" rules: Does "AI ships handle being taken aback normally" mean the standard rules (1st turn 1 hourglass, subsequent turns 2 hourglasses side) or the...
Some caveats: Having found the solo campaign rules and the July scenario pretty late, my playthrough might have been a little hurried (see setup). I also jumped back into the rules pretty cold, so...
Hi folks,
it's been a while since I dropped anchor in the Anchorage, but your solo rules and the campaign are just too intriguing to pass them by! After two short games of SoG I played a while...
Thanks for the pictures. I hiked the Great Glen Way this June and saw nice yachts, but no tall ships or viking longboats. :)
