Captain Hal Sparrow!!! a great opener for him.

There was something in his bones that spoke to him about the sea and the freebooting life of a pirate. I think you're refering to rheumatism.

That's an interesting thought about rules mistakes, I noticed the same thing looking back over my game notes, it may be that there is more complexity here and we just don't see the mistakes because they are lost in all the other detail. Mind you I don't remember reading in the scenario that we should ignore special damage so my thoughts are probably meaningless.

I've finished August's game but wrote up my first ever WWll flying game last night as it was easier. We're in the throes of decorating, so gaming time is in severely short supply. Good luck with your next mission.
