 WildWill
Pirates of Davy Jone’s Curse - #040 Orca
Name: Orca
Set: PODJC
Card #: 040
Rarity: Common
Type: Ship
Cost: 6 Points
Masts: 2
Cannons: 5S, 4S
Cargo: 1
Movement: S+S
Faction: Pirates

Ability: When this ship carries no cargo, she gets +S to her base move.

The Orca’s crew works hard to keep her looking like a merchant ship, maintaining her fame as one of the fastest ships to ever sail.

Depending on whether or not you play crew counts as cargo, this ship can be devastating. Sure, she has one cargo, but you can put either a Helmsman or a Captain on board (I’d use a Captain actually, I like moving and shooting, even with crappy guns). Triple S movement and a captain doesn’t stink too badly. For 9 points total (6+3 for the captain) you’ve got a VERY nice little third attacker. Works great for big games. ESPECIALLY in conjunction with a ship like Revenant, or anything else that says “Other ships don’t block this ship’s line of fire.”

My Ratings
Playability 3 of 5
Collectability 2 of 5

Next Week – Either French, Spanish or English. Since the French are in the Semi Finals of the World Cup, we’ll go with them.
