In honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, this Thursday's gaming event was 4-handed Pirates of the Caribbean. Kent brought over his large collection and step-son Nathan joined in for grog, ship's biscuit, and broadsides.
In Game One yours truly played British, Kent came in as Chinese, with Ric and Nathan as pirates. The Brits dealt Ric's pirates a mortal blow early on with a hit-and-run from the Algeron. Nathan and the Chin duked it out, leaving them both too weak to fend off the largely untouched Union Jack. Outgunned, they struck their colors.
Game Two saw Ric change over to the Spanish and Kent to the Americans. The Spaniards closed en masse on the Brits. Clever use of Ignacio Diaz led to unacceptable causualties, even after the Brits finished off the Spanish fleet. In the end the Americans accepted a truce with the pirate fleet.
Arrr!!
