Days of Plunder by Cutlass Arr-dvark

|

Well, I've been rather ill for the past few days (no relation to the fact I turned 24 the 13th, just a bad cold) so I haven't gotten much done on the games.

That changes today. I now present you a one page pirate war game. While it has the same .5 inch margins as my other single page games, this time I manged to use mostly 12 point font, except for the optional rules I squeezed in.

The original idea was to have the player's fold a sheet of paper into a hexagon, and cut up a 3x5 card to get the ships and measuring sticks. However, that left us with half inch ships, moving 3 inches across an 8 inch board - far too cramped. This version expands the board to two feet, though its still pretty quick to transverse with the wind at your back.

Yes, the name is a parody of a 1980's movie with Tom Cruise I never saw. "Pirates: Some Assembly Required" was dropped since the construction was eliminated, and "Plunder for Sail" seemed a bit too much of a pun.

Although I've started a couple, I'm rather bad about actually finishing war games, so I hope this turns out well.
