Description

Battle on the high seas or in the crowded streets of the Spanish Main as a Pirate, Pirate Hunter or a simple Merchant in this minatures game!

Using the Chain Reaction System found in all of Two Hour Wargames, you field a group of characters with very simple stats: Reputation and Weapons. Activation rolls tell you when you are able to go (higher rolls go first, but only activate higher Reputation groups) and then you may move and fire/charge. That's it!

Of course, being the reaction system, the other figures on the board won't be sitting and waiting for you to finish in a IGO-UGO fashion, but will react to your moves using a series of tables that may have them running from you, drawing pistols and firing, or charging into combat swords shining!

Be the last pirate standing and win!
Or play a campaign and retire with the most gold to win!
