This week we take a look at the Cursed and first up is an average four mast ship, Abomination. However, average in Cursed terminology means “the best thing since sliced bread”. 

Her stats are okay but the most interesting thing about this ship is the fluff text. It says that basically she’s made up of body parts. The graphics and name certainly illustrate this well. So given the fact that must other navies would have gone all out to chop down lots and lots of nice oak trees to make their ships. The Cursed in this case have used cheap, sustainable, organic matter. So, Wizkids when designing the Cursed and this ship must have inadvertently made them into a nation of sea-going zombie environmentalists.  

Her cannons are okay, with the built-in cannoneer you can back up a missed shot. With a captain and helmsman she’s good to go. Her cargo isn’t bad either. You’ll certainly have the space to grab the odd bit of shiny stuff. And the Cursed need all the help they can get in that area.  

The problem I have with this ship is her cost. Where they got 15pts from is a complete mystery to me. Most Cursed ships are rounded up the nearest whole number. This ship must of been round up after a few extra points were added for no reason.
