Inaugural International SoG Round the Island Race

[Dobbs]

Here's something I'd like to try:

It will be a race, in real time, on this site. I will control the playing table. At the start of a turn, I will post pictures of the orientation of the ships. Players submit their card choices to me via PM's.

If this sounds appealing, the race shall start this Friday, at 10:00am EDT. Information and Racing rules will be posted here.

The race will be limited to the first 5 entrants. If you don't think you can commit to what might be a multi-hour adventure, consider being a spectator or signing up as a stand-in.

The race will feature my sailing angle cards, swapped decks for Concordes and Amazons, and variable wind direction.

Racers may choose between SoWs, Amazons, Concordes, and Hebes.

As part of the race, there is a target on the far side of the island to which each participant must inflict a certain amount of damage. SoWs and 32 gun frigates do reduced damage in their broadsides as discussed in other threads of mine.

If you are interested, post here which ship you would like to race.

Entrants must post here by 10:00am EDT Thursday.
