I am driving my truck, so I can bring nearly two dozen standard Lego ships,
islands, terrain and whatever else we may need. Just say the word.
I have used homemade penants with a ship name, a player name, a nice
souvenier to take home. The owners name would be easy to add.

(...) One thing we need for the Pirate Game is a bunch of cutters, but we'll also need larger ships, mostly lots of class 2 and class 3 ships. Of course cutters are easy to pack, I can get 11 cutters and a few extra bits into two shoe boxes. Frank (24 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.gaming)
