| A very nice little ship. The sterncastle and rudder assembly has very nice lines and those swivel guns amidships are well done. The masts and sails are also well done. I do think the catheads seem a little too long but such a minor nit, not really (...) (17 years ago, 8-May-07, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

This sounded like fun, except that: I had never played ESPG I had never game-mastered (well, once, but that was 16 years ago) We didn't (...) (17 years ago, 2-Dec-06, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)

I'm not convinced about the 'reverse tumblehome', but it certainly yields more usable deck space. I'm thinking that Marathon would look (...) (18 years ago, 6-Aug-06, to lugnet.pirates, FTX)
