As an admiral, you command a vast and varied crew … but so do your rivals sailing other ships in the pirate fleet.

I learned from Azul that pulling chunking, colorful bakelite tokens out of the bag is a delightful experience, so that’s exactly the material and size we used for loot tokens in Libertalia: Winds of Galecrest.Starting at the top and working your way down, you will compare each icon row with the board state until you find the row that matches the loot tokens of the current day. Even better is the option to mix and match the different sets of abilities to create unique combinations each time. So he looks like an easy choice: except all the other players will have a Cabin Boy and they’ll all be thinking the same thing. It becomes much more difficult to keep track of what characters everyone has played as the player count increases, but it increases the potential to try and leverage multiple players to your advantage. Next, gain the doubloons owed to you on the reputation track and draw a number of tiles equal to the number of players and place them on the day spaces for the voyage you are on.
