Boarding Crew
A downloadable supplement
A short sandbox/light simulation supplement for Pirate Borg that adds rules for:
- Boarding Battles - Boarding an enemy ship is now a test where the DR is decided by Yes or No questions and player actions.
- Crew Management - You manage a living ship population where the nameless crew under your command live and die by your choices.
You may change, cherry-pick or break the rules based on your own needs!
Note: If you play solo, which this supplement was designed for, it requires an oracle of your choice to play.

How many pages does Boarding Crew have?
It has 4 pages. A cover, front and back, and two pages of content.
Thanks very much for publishing these. The rules are really very good. Great if you don't want to a play out a long melee after a naval battle. One question. Why is the Crew Die (love that btw) for the Man-of-War with a skeleton crew (also love that) a d4 instead of d6 for like-sized ships?
Thank you for the encouragement!
I want to recall that the purposewas to make manowar the most versatile ship in terms of crew size, and the die should somewhat reflect the crew rules from the Pirate Borg rulebook. I think the challange I had was to make Manowar, Galleon and Frigate distinct from each other.
Hope that answers your question!
