Not a bad crew, but a little expensive if you ask me. For four points, you can ignore the first successful hit your ship takes each turn, provided you have all your masts. So basically I extend my lifespan somewhat, but the moment they hit me twice in a turn (which isn't that uncommon with a good size ship or a gunship) this guy becomes a waste of points and a waste of a cargo slot. Not really my idea of an awesome crew member. He can do stuff, and give you temporary invincibility (always nice), but he becomes useless the moment they get a couple of good hits in.

Rating: 2.5/5

"Don" Pedro Gilbert

Five points is a lot for a crew member. Let's see...you get the sacrifice ability, which is already on Captain Blackheart. This is a very powerful ability, but it's better on Blackheart because he also has the standard Captain ability. His other effect is pretty neat but not that useful. Whenever you load treasure with his ship, you can exchange one treasure from that island for another one from another island (without looking at the second one). This can let you dodge annoying unique treasure that your opponent might be using, which is pretty cool. But I'm not sure that is worth five points overall. The ability fits a treasure hauling ship, which have to be light on crew, and his sacrifice ability begs you to load the ship with crew (also a good target for Mermaids). Sure, by sacrificing you can free up slots for treasure, but you need to load up in the first place, and if you're playing Pirates, those crew points are better spent on a gunship with Blackheart.

Rating: 3/5
 
I M Einstein Joaquin Vega

Joaquin Vega has an interesting ability But after two hits from a ship, it becomes a waste of crew(unless you have a shipwright). Four points is a little too much for his ability. three or two would be reasonable. This crew could be on any ship but in treasure haulers or killer gunships it would be at its fullest. 2.5/5

Don Pedro Gilbert

A sacrifice ability with a treasure catagory effect-this crew could be on any ship. The ship that would benifit the most is probably a treasure hauler because you can sacrifice a crew to get closer to the treasure gaining a cargo space. Then you could try to find the most valued treasure to bring to your home island or fort. 3.5/5 - if you can find the right way to use it
