"They're more like…guidelines." Sorry, had to say it. I've always enjoyed TMPer's David Raybin's (AKA Nashville) rules for his pirate game extravaganzas at Nashcon titled BARNACLE BILL PIRATE RULES. Covers ships, ship combat, boarding, and ground raids (all of which are going on simultaneously in his epic presentations!). Alas, I cannot find a current link, but I expect he'll be along shortly to correct that lack. |

It's an ok set I don't mind them. No reload rules and short ranges for firing to compensate. I hosted a 3 player game and all 3 players enjoyed themselves. |

Our group has been playing a lot of "flashing steel". From Ganesha games.

Blood and Plunder by Firelock Games is the best choice. |

I have the PDF of the Barnacle Bill rules, but the charts are missing. Do you know how I can obtain them? |
