We will again be bringing large scale fighting ships to Origins!

We are thinking of two play surfaces, one representing the English Channel, and the other representing the Carribean. you will be able to sail between play surfaces if you would like :)

In addition to the double play surface we have:

Rebuilt the 50 gun HMS Leopard.

Added a 44gun french frigate.

Added a french and english port for play surface edge.

Rebuilt or replaced 90 percent of third party designs with new designs made by us plus added over a dozen new ships.

Added a improved treasure hunt system

Some pictures of our 08 improvements can be seen at SAILPOWERGAME.com

If you are thinking of playing or have questions, post here or contact us :)

Those look great! I am coming to Origins.

When are your games scheduled?

These guys are great and run a fantastic game…with or without lights. If you can get in the game, do so, you'll have a blast.

Thanks,
Have you gotten any indication of when the events list will be posted?

Nope, just on my little ol' desktop! I don't expect Events to be up on the website till the 10th at the earliest, probably later.

The events list is up on the Origins website, as of last night.

Enjoy!
