Cadet-Captain Mike Name: Black Heart
Card: SC #033 (Uncommon)
Points: 13
Faction: Pirates

Masts: 4
Cargo: 5
Moves: S+L
Guns : 4L, 3L, 3S, 4S
Hit %: 167 (S), 83 (L)
Link : The Headhunter
Ability: Once per turn, you may reroll any die roll you make for this ship; you must use the second die roll result.

Now this ship has some potential! Her speed is very good, especially for a 4-masted ship. Cargo is well above average. You could use her for gold running just fine, if you don't mind paying 13 points for a gold ship.

But this ship wasn't made for gold. With her ability and her linked crew, she's a combatant. The SCS Headhunter gives a world-hater and a sac ability for 6 points. You don't need a Helmsman (how often do I say that?), and her reroll can serve as a substitute Cannoneer, so just add a Captain and an Oarsman or two, and you're off to the battle, with cannon hit percentages up to 233% (short range) and 117% (long range).
Her price is okay for what you get, and you've still got three cargo free for boarding, or for pouncing on gold that somebody foolishly left lying around nearby.

With all her ratings above average, the Black Heart will make a good fighting flagship for a Pirate admiral. And if the enemy isn't inclined to fight, then leave the crew at home and grab some gold. Flexibility is good. This ship is pretty good, too.

Gold ship rating: 3.6 / 5
Gunship rating: 3.7 / 5
Boarding ship rating: 3.8 / 5
Overall value: 3.6 / 5
