Keyword: Catamaran
Ability: Once per turn, you may reroll any die roll you make for this ship; you must use the second die roll result.

The Pirates did well in Ocean's Edge - they got one of every new ship and monster type. This one is almost identical to the other catamaran, the HMS Hermes. The only differences are in the cannons (the Pirate has L-range guns instead of S-range) and the ability (Hermes ignores terrain). Her ability is a good one for a catamaran; you can reroll the "cat" roll that makes the first shot miss, or use the reroll on her cannons if it's too late for that. This gives the Skipping Stone a second role as an auxiliary fighter, if you don't want to use her for gold running in hostile waters.

Aside from that, you can look up my review of HMS Hermes and apply everything I said to this ship as well.

Total rating: 3.5 / 5
