Blood & Pigment Podcast Episode 21
This is a packed episode! First we get first hand reports from Garrett on the GenCon and Nashcon tournaments and events.
Garrett hosted a tournament at Gencon, then won a tournament at Nashcon!
Then we share some stories of our recent games, give updates on hobby projects and related fluff before jumping into our main topic.
Managing Your Ship’s Crew
In the second half of this jumbo episode, we focus on building and managing a solid crew for whatever ship you’re sailing in Blood & Plunder.
There are a lot of “moving parts” when you’re trying to manage your ship well in a game of Blood & Plunder.
You have:
- Sailing
- Steering
- Cannons
- Repairs
- Sweeps
- Warding Off Boarders
- Shooting Your Enemy
- Grappling
- Boarding
How can you set your crew up so they cover the main bases and have flexibility, and can keep going under fire?
