than any shipping chart.”
Better late than never right?
Wow, a 1 master with 3 cargo spaces
AND a free explorer built in? But, OK, seven points
for one mast is quite high. As a Scout ship, with a
helmsman on board, you can move her 3S per turn, and
STILL be able to carry some of that hard won
treasure back home. Or, you could seed an
explosives UT and have an even better chance at
using her for a suicide run. PLUS, she’s a Galley,
so if you put a captain on board, she can still move
and shoot. The cost might be high, but this ship
should get some SERIOUS consideration if you’re
building a Corsairs fleet.

One masters don’t typically go for
much more than a few dollars, and Tunis is no
exception. Unfortunately there aren’t any active
auctions for this ship at the moment (at least none
that I could find), but there are several Ebay
stores that want $5+ for her. I’d say wait and
trade.
My Ratings:
Playability 3 of 5
Collectability 3 of 5
Next Time – A whole new set of
Barbary Corsairs to look at, and I promise I’ll get
all three of them written for timely posting!
