My goodness...it's HUGE! And it's Imperial Soldiers, too! How very excellent. It looks awfully slow, though. It could use some larger, custom-made sails. It's a shame there isn't more pictures of it. (...) (20 years ago, 23-Oct-04, to lugnet.pirates)

The big bore, the solid clunky wheels, the "ribbed" look caused by the multiple parts, and heavy support all combine to make these look more like medieval cannon than Pirates appropriate, but I do like them, nevertheless. -->Bruce<-- (20 years ago, 18-Oct-04, to lugnet.pirates)

Well, I've waited some months, but finally this ship was on deep discount. First: it IS a JacStone set, so as expected, there are ugly figs and lots of big pieces.
