Diggin' for Booty on the Crimson Coast!

All the fun of digging up treasure comes in packs which include rules, crew members, a tropical island or two and and some ships you can build. The Crimson Coast also has mighty treacherous weather and island forts that you can add to your fleet when you play the game! When you are ready to play, each pirate captain builds a fleet of ships by spending points!

If you're a bit fumble-fingered then you may have some problems with Pirates of the Crimson Coast. The pirate vessels that ply the Crimson Coast are a bit difficult to put together. You should also look out for the crewman, Jonah, who has too many powers, which can make games very one-sided.

Pirates, lots and lots of pirates.

Ghost ships - Oooh... Spooky.

A cheap game to get started playing.

Pirates of the Crimson Coast Thumbs Down:

The Jonah crewman is too powerful and can cause problems in game play.

Collecting the rare ships and crew is tricky.

Assembling your fleet is a pain.
