I know this may sound weird... Has anyone considered combining BrikWars and Evil Steve's Pirate game? ~Clangador (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) That is a problem. But, if you were to develop multiple personalities, you could play a game by yourself and test the rule modifications. ~Clangador (20 years ago, 5-Jun-04, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.gaming)

(...) Well, no. Dismasting a ship was probably the easiest way - the opposing ship couldn't manuever to make an effective broadside while you can. You don't do that with grapeshot. Further, grapeshot was only really effective from close range, and (...) (20 years ago, 1-Jun-04, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.gaming, FTX)

(...) But that's braodly historically accurate. For most countries' fleets/ships/captains the whole point of shooting at an opposing ship was to disable it, board it and force the crew (or what was left of them) to surrender.

I want cannon fire to be about ship-to-ship combat and not slaughtering the crew while leaving the ship intact. From what I saw, GS is easily the most (...)

(...) Whether grape is "too effective" or not as currently written is the subject of much discussion in ESPG circles. I don't think there has been any firm conclusion drawn as of yet. (20 years ago, 1-Jun-04, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.gaming, FTX)
