Beschreibung
Pirate Hunter: 1718 is an old-school style tactical solitaire board game of action and adventure, with a bit of wargame and RPG elements mixed in. An open-ended sandbox style game where you, as a warship captain, may choose your own path.
Set in the Caribbean Islands during the year 1718, as a privateer warship captain hired by the governor of Port Royal, you will be tasked with hunting down dastardly pirates that are disrupting the shipping industry in the Caribbean, with your ultimate goal being to attack and shut down the notorious pirate town of Nassau.
But it's not all work and no play.
In your free time, you might decide to also gamble in a tavern, or even attempt to recover buried treasure from acquired maps.
Whatever path you choose, no two games will ever play the same.
Two D10 dice are required to play. However, ten D10 dice are recommended to reduce the number of rolls during ship combat.
10 minute game setup and breakdown times.
A large size table is required for full game setup. * Using the optional Warship sheet eliminates some of the game mats and reduces overall table footprint size.
Total play time to the end is approximately 5-10 hours (depending on game length chosen).
Adjustable starting difficulty based on player's skill level.
With most of the rules integrated into the tables, there is practically no learning curve or rules memorization.
And with 5 types of sailing ships, ship damage modeling, weather conditions, special items, warship captain skills, specialist crewmen, random events, a multitude of table modifiers, and an almost unlimited number of player choices, Pirate Hunter: 1718 offers high replay value.
Can you hunt down the most notorious pirates in the Caribbean and eventually close down Nassau?
