Prepare to weigh anchor and set sail for swashbuckling adventure with Pirates of the Spanish Main™, the world’s first constructible strategy game™! Created by game-industry pioneer Jordan Weisman, constructible strategy games use components assembled from styrene cards to create three-dimensional game pieces.
In Pirates of the Spanish Main, players make fleets of ships to sail to different islands looking for treasure. This booty is obtained in one of two ways: commanding your salty dogs to dig it out of the ground or sending your opponent’s ships to Davy Jones’ locker! Either way, game play is fast and fun, and the built-in damage tracking system makes Pirates of the Spanish Main the game of choice of wannabe-buccaneers everywhere.
Pirates of the Spanish Main will include 230 different collectable pieces, including ships, crew, treasure, and famous (and infamous!) personalities. It will sell in Booster Packs that each contain at least one ship, island, and crew; a small six-sided die; and complete rules for play. Boosters will retail for $3.49, and they are guaranteed to contain more fun than a parrot with scurvy.
Beats those dumb stompy robots (MW). I didn't get into 7th Sea but those ships look too cool not to try. Can't see people collecting many though. Game will mostly be an excuse to do Long John Silver impressions. "aargh, Jim lad ..." etc.
Aarrgh, all ye little swashbucklers want to play Pirates of the Carabe...I mean Spanish Main? What's that you say? No? Even if it is cheaper than Sportsclix you still won't buy it eh? Worth a shot Wizkids, but ye investment be swimming in Davy Joneses Locker on this one. Aargh!
Axis and Allies was Successful, but the sister game with wooden Buccaneer ships was a flop
Games workshop tried for years to keep thier small scale war ship game afloat...guess what it sunk!
I've seen others do down the drain too. Maybe someone should have dones some research into this first.
Wait!....I know my kids love the big toy pirate ships and play with them endlessly...I hope this game is not too complicated for the under 10 crowd. {errrr..what type of sturdy materials are the ships made of?} Ya thought so...more broken junk to throw in the trash....
Spend more time of research and development please with the successful game systems...just a request
