cool, but do you realize that between the tresure-ship keyword and the stump, you coud put an infinite number of explorers on as well, not very useful, but they can be killed for extra actions.

Favor of the Gods will remove your Mermaids card from the game unless you play it beforehand; so someone could still play Mermaids on Baochuan early on.

You could do the same thing for a regular ship, just use oarsmen instead of explorers

for benjown: the stump does not work this way! it doesn't reduce the crew cost, it only allows to put, for example, three captains on a ship with a point cost of seven: you can't do that per the standard rules: cap+cap+cap=9 points.... it isn't possible to do that, because they superceed the point cost of the ship. but with stump, they still cost 9 pts, but you can put them on the 7 points ships!!!!

for brendanpn: the oarsman ability does not stack: all oarsmen after the first take up one cargo space....

ciao!!! fede

Just a couple of quick clarifications for ziotoo4

1. It would be more accurate to say that The Stump and other similar characters don't reduce the fleet cost of crew. Any other crew that you place on a ship with this character still has its full cost relative to your fleet but not relative to the individual ship.

2. One of the unique characteristics of both the Baochuan and the Guichuan is that crew do not take up cargo spaces on these ships. It is a function of the Treasure Ship keyword. So technically with The Stump, you could pile an infinite number of Oarsmen onto the ship and the only negative impacts would be an increased fleet cost and an increased vulnerability to things like Mermaids or Rum.

It should also be said that this fleet is far less effective in a game with Mysterious Islands. If the Mysterious Island that allows you to draw an Event from your collection is in play, Mermaids can be brought back into play and this ship is toast.

why not use the oceans edge version of crimson angel? she is one point cheaper and gives you plus one for cannon rolls against non-pirates. then all your cannons would hit on roll of 3 or above
