Currently playing 5-6E: AKINARU’S LAST CHANCE on Kraken
RULES: SHIPS:
A ship is a support card. It is neither a bane nor a boon.
In some scenarios, a ship may be anchored at a specific location.
Commanding
If the ship is not anchored: you are commanding the ship on your turn.
If the ship is anchored: you also have to be at the ship’s location.
Any characters at the commander’s location are also on the ship.
If the commander moves or is moved, and the ship is not anchored or wrecked, any characters at the old location may also move to the new location.
Encountering
Only the commander can encounter another ship. (If a ship would be encountered by someone else, banish it instead.)
If the encountered ship is undefeated, it deals Structural damage instead of Combat damage.
Structural Damage
Structural damage is dealt to the ship, rather than to a character.
Any characters may discard any number of cards to prevent that much Structural damage.
If an intact ship takes any Structural damage, it becomes wrecked.
If a wrecked ship takes Structural damage, discard that many cards from the Blessing deck.
Repairing
At the start of the move step, the commander may attempt to repair a wrecked ship.
If successful, the ship is no longer wrecked.
Seizing
When you seize a ship, record the seized ship on your Chronicle Sheet. At the start of a scenario, you may cross off a ship you have seized to use that ship instead. (This is different in SoTT than in S&S)
A seized ship replaces your current ship, which is banished. (The new ship keeps any plunder and anchoring of the old ship.)
Plunder
At the start of the scenario, stash a plunder.
If you defeat another ship, stash a plunder.
Wrecked ships cannot gain plunder.
At the end of the turn, banish 1 random plunder from a wrecked ship.
If you win the scenario, add the plunder to the acquired cards.

Mythic Charges:
After you gain a mythic path card, you begin each scenario with
a number of mythic charges equal to that scenario’s adventure deck
number. Use the provided counters to track your mythic charges. If
you encounter a bane that has the Mythic trait, when it is defeated,
you get 1 charge. You may expend charges for certain powers. When
you reset your hand at the end of your turn, if you have more mythic
charges than the scenario’s adventure deck number, expend charges
down to that number.
S&S Ship Rules:
Commanding and Moving Ships
Whenever it is your turn, if your ship is not anchored at a location,
you are commanding your party’s ship. All characters at your location
are on the ship; characters at other locations are not on the ship. If
you move or are moved while commanding the ship, other characters
on the ship may choose to move with you. Effects that restrict
movement still apply—if something prevents you from moving, you
can’t move; if something is preventing another character at your
location from moving, that character cannot move with you. Any
character who does not move with you is no longer on the ship.
Whenever it is your turn, if your ship is anchored and you are
at the ship’s location, you are commanding your party’s ship; all
characters at your location are on the ship. You may not choose to
move an anchored ship. If your character moves or is moved from the
ship’s location, you are no longer on the ship or commanding it, and
other characters may not choose to move with you.
ENCOUTERING SHIPS
While you are commanding a ship, you may encounter other ships. If
you are not commanding a ship, banish any ship you would encounter.
Even though a ship is neither a bane nor a boon, encountering
a ship is much like encountering a bane: if you don’t evade it, you
must attempt a check to defeat it. If you succeed at all of the checks
required to defeat a ship, and your ship is not wrecked, stash a
plunder card (see Plunder Cards below). If you fail a check to defeat
a ship, it does not deal damage to your character; instead, it deals
Structural damage to your ship (see Structural Damage below).
Whether you succeed or fail to defeat a ship, unless you seize it (see
Seizing Ships below), return it to wherever it came from.
Seizing Ships
Some cards allow you to seize a ship you defeat. If you seize a ship,
it replaces your current ship, which is banished. Take any plunder
cards that were under your original ship and put them under your
new ship. Seizing a ship does not allow you to check it off on your
fleet card.
If your ship is anchored, and you seize another ship, that ship is
now anchored.
Structural Damage
Structural damage is a special type of damage; it does not affect
characters, and it is the only type of damage that affects ships.
Cards that reduce damage only to characters do not affect Structural
damage. If you fail a check to defeat a ship, it deals an amount of
Structural damage to your ship equal to the difference between the
difficulty to defeat the ship and your check result.
When your ship is dealt Structural damage, first apply any powers
on the ship card or other cards in play that reduce or increase that
damage. Then characters may play cards or use powers that affect
Structural damage. Finally, any character may discard any number
of cards from his hand to reduce Structural damage by 1 for each
such discarded card. If the Structural damage is reduced to 0, the
ship is unaffected.
If a ship that is not already wrecked is successfully dealt any
Structural damage, it is wrecked (see Wrecked Ships below); you
do not need to discard cards equal to the amount of damage—the
effect is the same regardless of the amount of damage that is dealt.
If a ship that is already wrecked is successfully dealt any Structural
damage, discard a number of cards from the blessings deck equal to
the amount of damage successfully dealt to the ship.
Wrecked Ships
When your ship is wrecked, flip it facedown to indicate its wrecked
state. When commanding a wrecked ship, at the start of your move
step, you may attempt the check to repair the ship listed on the ship
card; if you succeed, the ship is no longer wrecked, so you turn the
ship card faceup. If you move while commanding a wrecked ship,
other characters cannot choose to move with you. When a ship is
wrecked, you can never stash more plunder cards under it (see
Plunder Cards below). At the end of any turn, if your ship is wrecked,
banish 1 random plunder card from under the ship.
Plunder Cards
Plunder cards commonly represent potential rewards carried on your
ship. When you stash a plunder card, roll 1d6 on the table below,
draw 1 card of the corresponding type from the box without looking
at the card, and unless otherwise instructed, put the plunder card
facedown under your ship.
PLUNDER TABLE
d6 Card Type
1 weapon
2 spell
3 armor
4 item
5 ally
6 choose 1 of the above 5 card types
If you win the scenario, treat any plunder cards under your ship as
you do loot; if you lose the scenario, put them back in the box. You
don’t get to use plunder cards while they’re under your ship card, so
do your best to keep them safe until the end of the scenario.
You stash 1 plunder card when you set up a scenario (see page 7).
You also stash 1 plunder card if you defeat a ship while your ship is
not wrecked (see Encountering Ships on page 17).
If you are instructed to add a plunder card to your hand or to a
deck, roll on the Plunder Table, draw the corresponding card from the
box, and add it as you would any other card. (This does not count as
stashing a plunder card.)
