Hey, I'm planning a sandbox style piracy game set in the Shackles. Now, to me, the ships of the Shackles are pretty much the same level of progress as the Golden Age of Piracy, Pirates of the Caribbean style ships.
But I'm having difficulty writing up stats for these ships using the Fast-Play Ship Combat rules and keeping it both balanced AND true to the flavour.
I've never run the Fast Play rules but I like the simplicity of them, thus why I'm basing this around them.
So far I have Rowboats (Tiny), Fishing Boats (Small), Brigantine (Medium), Frigate (Large) & Galleon (Huge).
Any help or suggestions would be very appreciated. Has anyone else attempted this or successfully thrown together some quick stats for these class of ships?
