Pirates CSG Podcast: Mike Mulvihill Supercut
Questions of the Day:
Ben: Would you buy a similar but not compatible version of the Pirates of the Spanish Main IP from Wizkids? (similar theme and artwork, but not compatible with the original CSG)
Mike: Would you be interested in a scenario model of play?
How do you play the game? Do you play it for a 30 minute quick game, or larger games that take longer?
Would you have liked to see the minor faction storylines in more of the sets?
Mike Mulvhill is one of the true giants of Wizkids Pirates CSG history, having designed the majority of the game pieces! He was heavily involved in numerous aspects of the game from Spanish Main through Rise of the Fiends, and helped with certain aspects on Fire and Steel. The game was basically his in terms of game design, concept creation, game mechanics and gameplay concepts, as well as rules, factions, and the specific individual game pieces.

Pirates CSG Podcast #38: News, Game Essentials, Playing Solo, Pirate Code Page, Try 20 Point Fleets!
New Idea: Challenge. Your next game of Pirates CSG should NOT be at 40 points! (20/60/etc)
Question of the Day: Any ideas for new segments we could pursue?
News: MT alive into the new year. Posting entire story of EE game on IG: https://www.instagram.com/piratescsg/
Obago Deuce for $500! https://goo.gl/w9KSTJ
Proof: https://i.postimg.cc/85gX4J8V/Eagleman94about-Obago-Deuce.png
(one previous known high was $232.50, hard to find others that have been exchanged since vosarnath’s at MT a handful of years back)
-Having slight technical issues that may compromise podcast episodes and THC a bit
-Between godmason being busy, my impending life changes, somewhat declining content base, and technical issues, expect shorter and less episodes this year. Suggesting topics is great!!
-Short solo episodes may sometimes be even less than 30 minutes, I can cover a bunch of stuff quickly it seems, especially with only one opinion on each topic.
-Trying to do a post/page every day at PwB, going through MT content for some of my best stuff
-Commenting on my content at PwB will help the site grow and be popular as a “hub” for Pirates CSG - plus I’ll respond to all comments!! Thank you!
-Looking at podcast data from SE, seem to have about 33 unique IP’s per episode.
Game essentials - measuring card or straws - latter great for arches and planning moves/premeasuring, Use a big d6 from SE boxes/etc for ease of use and likely better results (fun idea though - 10 tiny d6 for a Zeus shoot action since all cannons the same)
Another idea on playing solo without favoring a faction - really delve into each faction, especially before playing. Maybe stop playing favorites in general, force yourself to use a faction you’ve NEVER played before. Read a book on the Spanish Empire and then see if you like playing them better. Make customs inspired by pop culture to play the Cursed or Vikings, etc. Just think outside the box and try to really become a fan of each faction. Partly due to knowing almost all the ships and crew in the game, I find it easy and fun to play as any faction. (ex: Vikings in CG4 should be fun, and somewhat groundbreaking in terms of factional play in CG’s)
Try reading to get passionate: https://amzn.to/2AQkdBs
New segment - Random Pirate Code page, muse on rules/strategy of results https://pirateswithben.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/The-Pirate-Code-FAQ-Dec-2016.pdf
Interesting fleets for x point games - try 20 points sometime. Fast, forces you to be efficient with building, probably no +5’s, easy to get going, fun with multiple players OR multiple fleets per player, etc. Played Water World game against repkosai in 2017 with Libellule + bonuses, was very fun!!
Libellule fleet: http://m.miniaturetrading.com/im/showDeck/deck_id/800125/grouping/0/extended_format/true

Pirates CSG Podcast #37: Optimizing and Using Lesser Ships and Crew | Circle of Blood Review
Question of the Day: How do you get lesser ships and crew into action?
“thoughts on optimizing less/not utilized ships"
-MUST have speed, so helmsmen pretty much always necessary (especially since a lot of lesser ships are slow). Beyond that, try to find a niche use for specific game pieces. For example, 1 cargo and fast speed? (Dark Fox) Scout explorer with crew or S-Explorer. OR, flotilla tug with surprise crew face down (canceller/captain/etc).
Slow with high cargo - home waters hybrid to get nearby gold and protect HI, potentially use with navigator. Could also use with gold factory bonus strategy, especially in case of Spanish “treasure galleons” such as Isabela, Concepcion, etc.
-Keep in mind that your competition will not want to dumb things down (people like to win and often use the same OP ships all the time), so have realistic outcome expectations and propose alternative game ideas like “make worst fleet possible, pass to other player” to get lesser ships/crew into action. Other than that, more points = more points to use on gimmicks and suboptimal experiments
“Rules variants to get the ships on the table.”
-Require specific base move - Challenge of Snails, all L, etc.
-Require all cargo holds to be full during setup - force players to make tradeoffs on when to dump crew - right at start, at wild islands (making them accessible to other players), or go with total war/all combat strategy? Con-exacerbates how OP Sac already is.
-Require each player to use ONLY ships AND named crew they’ve never used before (for starters, look through what you’ve never punched out!), or a pure faction fleet from a faction you’ve never played.
-Look through Fleet Challenge Archives to find fun restrictions http://www.miniaturetrading.com/im/forum/viewtopic/t=8492///

Pirates CSG Podcast #35: Return to Savage Shores Set Review
Return to Savage Shores Set Review
-RTSS WAS NEVER PHYSICALLY RELEASED! Woelf provided the information in 2012. It is not a set you can collect, and you’ll have to use proxies, custom made ships, or VASSAL to use it.
Question of the Day: Do you like Return to Savage Shores? Do you wish it was released? Do you like it more or less than Savage Shores? Have you used any RtSS game pieces yet? If so, how did it go?
You can find Return to Savage Shores in the Master Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18Z-x-z9gaWiKFLk-kw1weamc0A1-NxMN3xLjWWKsUmA/edit?usp=sharing

Pirates CSG Podcast #31: UNRELEASED AND UNEXPECTED
Pirates CSG Master Spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/18Z-x-z9gaWiKFLk-kw1weamc0A1-NxMN3xLjWWKsUmA/edit?usp=sharing
I will also release the documents that led to this episode that Woelf has shared with me, so everyone can look at them!
Question of the Day: Which of these game pieces would you most want to use? Which ones excite you the most?
Information about Miniature Trading: http://m.miniaturetrading.com/im/forum/viewtopic/t=9350///
Audio version of the podcast: http://shoutengine.com/PiratesCSGPodcast/
The Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/165340696838921/
Woelf has shared some original Wizkids spreadsheets with me to help in my process to create a "master spreadsheet" that I hope to turn into a second database, similar to the one at Miniature Trading. In these incredible documents are many "juicy tidbits" of information, a true treasure trove of cool stuff for a Pirates fanatic like me.
How crazy is this?! New Pirates information 13 years later! XD I can't wait to use some of these new game pieces in games sometime.
Pros of my spreadsheet:
-Don’t have to scroll to the right for anything important (flavor text and treasure values off to the right) (Basically a rule of Pirates CSG spreadsheets in my opinion - if you can’t easily see all gameplay-relevant data without scrolling, columns should be shrunk down for ease of use.)
-All flavor text included
-Factions color coded for maximum ease of use (I like the new design so much that I think I will be converting my custom sets to the same color scheme!)
-Took the best stuff from each resource used (Holofernes’ notes from Jolly Roger + filtering, flavor text from Wizkids spreadsheets, Miniature Trading database for cannons and some flavor text (a/b for crewfer twofers/etc are lowercase because that is how they appear on the WK documents)
-Includes unreleased and “lost” items from official Wizkids documents
Cons:
-Some columns do not display well at all with the filter view. Those are the ones I slanted so they would be more legible (it gets worse if they are horizontal).
-Filter view does not seem to work with Google Sheets version for online viewing, unless you create a temporary filter view yourself. Even tried allowing editing mode and locking the sheets, but that didn’t work either. (https://productforums.google.com/d/msg/docs/68RwOGYUCqA/PFFYjiaKBwAJ)
To view filters in online version: Data-Filter Views-Create new temporary filter view
The .xlsx file of the spreadsheet has the filters.
-Likely some minor mistakes due to copy/paste errors or excessive dragging of cell data. (please point out so I can fix them)

Pirates CSG Podcast #24: Rise of the Fiends Set Review
Wow, this was a big one. We went live on youtube, where some watchers showed up after I posted about it on MT, Facebook, reddit, Twitter, etc.
Question of the day: What do you think of Rise of the Fiends as a set? Like/dislike? Favorite or least favorite things about it?
Amazingly enough, when we recorded this podcast, HWG had BOTH their 36 pack lot of RotF AND the Plunder Pack (with Delusion) ON SALE!! O_O
If you're on a tighter budget: 6 packs for $17.95
RotF on eBay
Check out godmason's review of the Hades' Realm.
I highly recommend checking out the Facebook group - one of the live viewers checked this podcast out from there, and there's consistently interesting content on there. The group has also grown quite a lot, now at well over 100 members!
