No..........wait till I do a signup. (if I even do a game)

Well, unless you have people who know what they are doing, this would take ages....

It would only take a year and a half at most (one turn, two-three weeks). It would allow for up to 6 people to play, aswell as that it'll be good for me becuase of the setup.

Lets just stop right there and pause for a moment

*ONE MOMENT PASSES* Good now lets carry on.

yo, if you do this, I want to play a few pirates(1 with a few replacements) on someone else's ship

Sounds great dilanski, I would love to see it. Dibs on the mercenary!

Ok so i'm trialing a game this week, just to see if it'll work in terms of lego logistics, might be a few pictures, i'll ilso have a few questions for you.

i have read thought the rules before and i get the idea of the game.
as long as you do the stats, and the dice rolling and make sure you tell me all the stats of my ship and the direction of the wind i should be ok.

im wondering if you have enought figures for 3 people
at lowest class thats 18 just to get the minimum for the ships to sail.

I would use Brik-wars when boarding occurs though since we all know how that works.

Evil stevie's pirate game, was designed to be played with unlimited supplies, I plan to write a Brikwars campaigning supplement for this. I'm also going to hopefully buy some more elements, mainly hulls.

The one ploblem with ESPG is the crew numbers, the minimum for a non-pirate vessel is "class+2" so why should the min for pirates be diffrent.
it should really depend on rigging and number of guns.
Cannon firing should also depend on the number of mini-figs maning it.
i would give it 4 actions:
1:loading+raming
2:aiming
3:firing
4:cleaning

so with 1 figure maning it would be once every 4 turns
with 2 once every 2 turns (turn one: load+aim, turn two: fire+clean)
with 3 it will fire three times in a row and then wait one turn. (turn one: load+aim+fire, turn two: clean+load+aim, turn three: fire+clean+load, turn four:aim+fire+clean.)
with 4 it will fire every turn.

you could add powder monkeys into the idea but that would be about speed and distance makeing the whole thing more complex.

I just had the game. It consisted of two players, with me as referee, my combat system works, but I need to tweak the RPG elements and size of the battlespace.

If you do this, you must include the three basic rules in Brikwars, as well as the most important rules (fudge and fun). Otherwise it would be a lesser game.
