Untitled Pirate Game is a miniature-agnostic skirmish game set in an alternative fantasy Golden Age of Piracy. This game was inspired by the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, the Pirate Borg TTRPG, and skirmish games like Frostgrave, Blood & Plunder, Legends of the High Seas, and the One Page Rules catalogue.

In Untitled Pirate Game, two (or more) players use miniatures to represent their ‘Crew’ and build custom forces to represent warring factions. A Crew usually consists of a few miniatures.

To fight a battle, players first build a pirate Crew with miniatures they have on hand. Then they can equip their Crew with ranged and melee weapons, hats and armour. Some Crew can even bring along pets that give their handlers boosts on the battlefield.

Players then choose or randomly determine a Scenario, which will indicate how opposing forces are set up on the battlefield and what each player must accomplish to win. For example, a Scenario might describe a raid on an enemy ship in port for supplies or a daring rescue of a hostage. Scenarios can take place on land, on ships at sea, or a combination of both.

Instead of an I Go, You Go or Alternating Activation system, players draw numbered Initiative Coins randomly from a bag to determine the order of activations at the start of each round.

The game mechanics are designed to be simple, silly and fun, and in no way aim to adhere to historical detail.

Please note that discriminatory and hateful behaviour and language will be met with zero tolerance by the designer and playtesters of this game.

downloaded - looks great - can't wait to try it out (and gives me an excuse to paint all those pirate minis I own)!

Looks cool!
