Ability – Turtle Ship. On the turn this ship is pinned, eliminate one crew and one mast from the rammed ship.

Flavor Text - The Glorious Treasure’s name stuck when her crew—a bunch of thieves and murderers—realized that the name encourages large ships with stupid captains to investigate her.

Turtles are the other new game mechanic introduced in this set, basically they have 2 extra hit points, each side of the hull is armored with an extra piece that you remove first when you get hit. So now we have 3 HP 1 Masters. Pretty nifty actually. This ship isn’t the most spectacular example of a turtle, but she’s nicely costed, and usefull in the right situation. Especially if your opponents like to ram.

Wild’ Will’s Patented EBAY Auction Review 1-27-06
# Closed Auctions: 2
Average Sale Amount: $1.15
Average EBAY Store Amount: $5.00

Usually such a disparity in pricing between the two different Ebay channels (auctions and fixed price stores) means this ship, while hot as a “turtle” has no real collectible value due to it’s limited playability. Sorry guys, this week’s selections were not so hot. Maybe next week will be better.


My Ratings:
Playability 2 of 5
Collectibility 2 of 5

Next week –We’ll continue our look at South China Seas – with a different faction. Did one of the original factions get hosed again? Stay Tuned!
