Arr! Having faced the amassed fleet of Capt'n Stevie before, I can safely say
that ye won't be needing ta' bring anything but lots of caffinated beverages!
As a survivor of the 12 hour battle during Radcon '98, I'd love to face of with
the likes of Admiral Derek of the Imperial Navy again! He may have lost the
fort to ship battle, but I was the only scurvy dog left on my (class 6) ship!
Not to mention that outbreak of UPS-plague that claimed the lives (at least for
the weekend) of over 700 minifigs! The horror!
I'd be on a plane in no time to gather with other pirate/lego-philes! One
question though. Could it be in the fall/winter-ish time so those of us from
the great off-white north (like Seattle) could survive the Texas sun?

Seattle? Well I'd like to try to get a game going this summer during PNLTC's big
train event at the Seattle Center. I figured since there will be a lot of AFOL's
here for the event we could have a Brickfest of sorts right along with it.
Interested? Anyone?

I'd love to help out with a Pirate game at an event like that. I'm pretty
sure I can count in one or two more as well from the guys I play with. The
real trick, as covered in Frank's game is making sure there are enough ships
of the right types for what we want to do. Battle games are a lot easier as
you can bring whatever you want, and things are divided up to form fair
teams. Having played the campaign style as well, I'd be in favor of trying
that as it sound like we could have at least two our three refs to work with.
Steve: You see a sail
Guy before me: Uh, ok. Can I tell if they have guns or not?
Steve: No, you're too far away, you can only see the sail.
Guy: Ok, we'll attack!
Steve: Alright. As you get closer, you see it's an Imperial Armada Flagship,
go over to Derek and fight your battle with your Cutter.
Guy: D'oh!
Steve (after rolling): You see a sail.
Me: Uh, ok...Can I tell how big of a sail it is?
Steve: Yes, it looks to be about the same size as yours.
Me: Are there more than one?
Steve: No.
Me: Well, then we'll attack!
Steve: You find it's a fishing boat. <roleplay> They surrender when they see
the size of your crew, you now have another ship.
Me: Cool.
Steve: You see a sail.
Some other Guy: Uh, ok. How big is it?...
(I've never hear that question asked so many times by so many guys)
