I imagine that Cursed admirals will use this ship quite a bit. She has a low cost and decent cannons, both of which are rarities in Cursed anchorages. She's a good gunship for the price by any standard; by Cursed standards, she's way above average. And if the enemy brings Pirates to the battle, he'll need Steve Irwin's help to fight this Crocodile. Captain and Helmsman are a minimum crew; if you can afford it, replace the Captain with either the DJC Sammy the Skull (captain and boarding bonus) or the OE El Fantasma (sac captain) and a couple of Oarsmen. Use her aggressively, but by all means, use her!

Speed: L
Firepower: one 3S, two 3L, one 3S
Cost: 11pts
Ability: This ship gets +1 to her cannon rolls against Pirate ships.

What we have here is a Cursed ship that is underpriced. She should have been rounded up from 11.5pts to 12pts. In fact, she was rounded down.........I know.......I know..... I can hardly believe it myself! But then this is value box week and Wizkids must have thought that it was a good idea to put good value ships in value boxes. Well it makes sense doesn’t it?

After any Cursed player has picked themselves up from the floor. After total astonishment at the fact that finally they have got a cheap Cursed ship, crew selection can then begin.

I would put aboard a captain and helmsman and maybe a Cannoneer. To help with those rank three cannons. Although are okay but not the best and leave it at that. However if she’s fighting the pirates then those cannons will really shine.
