link 54mm pirate action in the classroom. In this Chapter we see a ship to ship duel and a landing party attacked by the town regulars. Enjoy and leave a comment for the kids. |

Lion's Den very nice set up. Vewry cool as always. where did you get the ships? |

The ships are thrift store finds. They are by Simba for the small ship and Zizzle for the Black Pearl (Modified.) I have about nine in all in my collection. I am planning a backyard naval game. |

Good action and good pics. I really like the "old school" feel of the cardboard trees. |

Looks great. I like the idea of basing the pirates on antique looking coins |

Great work Lion's Den.
I have the highest admiration for your drive to introduce the idea of blending games with fair-play, education and creativity.

@ PaulsB, those coins come from the games "Shooters" (big box of dice and poker chips) and "Yahtzee Texa Hold'em" (another dice and chips game). I am a big BGG thrifter and I repurpose things a lot. Thanks for the comments guys. I do share the comments with fellow staff and the kids in the Strategy Gaming Club. |

Thrift store finds are the best. Good call on the coin-bases. |
