"We're THERE, dude." Either seems acceptable. ;)

As long as possible; much of the weekend if necessary.

Nope.

I probably could.

I'm thinking of building a new ship, about BSB size plus one or two sections, built
in the mode of an Asian warship. I'd bring _Gloire_ but she's way too large (and too
recent) for the game--if she fits in my car, she'll be a display piece only.
Otherwise I'll rebuild my four-midsection Armada Flagship to omit the c.1870s
features (stack and turret).

I've been looking for this, but I'm not sure where it is. I will modulate my
construction plans to account for it.

I might be able to cobble one of these together, using new parts I've acquired.

Perhaps we could allow them speed and HTH-combat bonuses, so that their physical
warfare can offset the pirates' range advantage? Or maybe allow them to "respawn,"
since they have a theoretically limitless population (living nearby and all)?
Let me know--of course much of my provision depends on whether I can actually find a
place to live for 1 June. Otherwise I may not be able to attend at all. :(
