The edge of the board is at the ends of the earth & here be monsters! 
The ships are fast and manoeuvrable with good firepower, but weak hulls so beware of your opponents.

The task is to locate all of the 14 islands (brown)and then anchor in the shallows(light blue) at your home port, perhaps increasing your chances by destroying any opposition on route. (if you can find anyone)

Game Log: 18 July 2006 - 11 April 2007 
Turn38: Movement: Ken desperately attempts to Unfoul - but the die roll of 6 is definitely against him & the ships remain fouled. Neither ship can therefore move.
Boarding Parties: Ken OBP 1cs; Jeff  OBP 2cs
Firing: Ken attempts to fire but with his crew committed to OBP he has none left to set the fuses. Jeff(R)(rake)-Ken at point blank range!
Damage: Ken t6(6)=3H-2G-R-C
Melee: Is this the last desperate battle as Ken 1cs=3 fights it out with Jeff 2cs=8 : 3x3 vs 8x3 roll 2,5 = -1,0 3x3 vs 7x3 roll 2,3 =-1,-1 2x3 vs 6x3 giving a 3:1 advantage to Jeff. Jeff now captures Ken's ship, thus effectively completing the game.

Overall placings: 1st Jeff  7 islands only controlled ship; 2nd Ken 5 islands but captured; 3rd MarkR 4 islands struck; 4th Chuck 4 islands struck; 5th Paul 1 island struck.
In total 10 islands out of the 14 were discovered, but no-one discovered their home port. see waiting list for new games
