Blood and plunder rules pdf download
I hope this introduction article helps you jump in and enjoy yourself. This is a solid historical game and the designers are committed to keeping it that way and making it really fun and dynamic.
Games can be played on land or sea or even amphibiously. Your games will usually range from men per side in a battle and take anywhere from 45 minutes to a couple hours. The core activation system in the game keeps games moving quickly and fairly and lets both players stay involved at every moment. At minimum you need some figures and a rule book to start playing.
You will also need some dice, blood and plunder rules pdf download, playing cards, some tokens and something to use as terrain for land games. The core rule book is absolutely necessary. This rule book contains all the rules for game play and details, stats and rules for 3 Spanish, 3 English, 2 French and 1 Pirate faction.
This book also includes new special character rules, new scenarios, blood and plunder rules pdf download, campaign rules, new ships, multiplayer rules, cavalry and many new units that you can layer into the factions covered in the core rule book. This book basically quadruples the scope of the game. The most straightforward way to start collecting minis is buying blood and plunder rules pdf download nationality Starter Box. Each box contains 25 minis except the European Militia box that can easily be used to make either several different point armies or if you want to upgrade troop veterancy and equipment, you can sometime even make some point forces with a Starter Box, blood and plunder rules pdf download.
Each Starter Box includes a commander, 8 models of two important troop types and 4 models of two other troop types along with a Nationality summary card that has the special rules and stats for most of the units in that nationality.
The French, English, Spanish and Dutch boxes all contain 8 Militia models and only 4 sailor models which makes those starter boxes very friendly to building for land games and less so for jumping straight into sea battles. Some boxes are nicely reinforced by other Starter boxes and sometimes buying two different Starter boxes can be a cost blood and plunder rules pdf download way to really flesh out a collection. I would consider the French Starter Box one of the best entry points into the game.
With it you can easily play French Buccaneers and French Caribbean Militia. The Pirates and Privateers Starter set will really round out your naval capabilities with sailors while the European Colonial Militia set would fill out land factions with cavalry, regulars and field guns, blood and plunder rules pdf download.
Combine an English starter set with the French and you have a cracking set of minis for the Unaligned Brethren of the Coast, Pirates, and Logwood Cutters factions. In general the French have the best equipment especially when it comes to muskets. The English box can be combined in blood and plunder rules pdf download same ways as the French to bolster land or sea factions. The English cannons crews are superior to the French and Spanish as well.
Their units are much more specialized and they have some very unique units including the Lanceros and Milicianos Indios. The European Colonial Militia set is a great way to expand their land options and so is the Native box if you want to get sneaky. If you want to expand the naval capabilities, the Dutch Box has some good units available to the Spanish and the Pirate and Privateers Box is always good for more sailors!
The Dutch faction has some of the best naval options in the game. A Privateers and Pirates will fill them out nicely but you could just buy some more Zeelieden and Enter Ploeg packs and be fairly well off.
Several Dutch units can be used as support units for basically all the other nationalities so if you want to try several nationalities, the Dutch can support anyone! The Dutch seem really well equipped and they have the punch of the French with the sturdiness of the English. The Natives are kind of their own thing. The Natives are best on land and they are probably the most rule-intensive nationality difficult for beginners, blood and plunder rules pdf download.
If you want to play Pirates the Unaligned Box is a great place to start. The Unaligned factions have so many units available to them if would just recommend buying blood and plunder rules pdf download blisters of units that interest you rather than buying a second box when you want to expand although the Privateer and Pirate Box would be good.
If you want a one-click purchase, Firelock offers some great package deals that get you everything you need to get started at some savings. With this pack you can get playing with your buddy right away at a reasonably low price point. An example of what you could get in a two player starter bundle. Firelock makes some beautiful dice for the game but any D10 will do, blood and plunder rules pdf download. If you do go with the Firelock dice, I highly recommend the light colored plunder dice.
The nation-specific dice are cool but pretty hard to read compared to the plunder dice. You can buy one in a template set from Firelock or cut out the paper guage blood and plunder rules pdf download the back of the rule book or even make your own wooden one using that paper as a template.
The sets of unit cards are very helpful so you can collect all the stats of your force in one place before a game.
If you use the Force Builderyou can print off your force with all the stats and abilities for all your units making the cards an unnecessary luxury. Another accessory that might be worthwhile is a case for your minis. I used Chessex mini cases with foam inserts to protect my minis.
You can be a minimalist on this or you can go crazy, blood and plunder rules pdf download. Land games do need some terrain elements to be fun. On the one hand you can use household items like a small box for a house, a washcloth for a crop field or forks and spoons for fences and walls.
On the other extreme you can 3D print Spanish villas and churches and buy luxury pre-painted terrain pieces from places like 4Ground terrain suppliers or people who build by hand and sell on eBay. Any flat surface will work to play on but a grass or ocean gaming mat will really enhance the visual experience.
Not necessary at all but makes the game look great. No matter your skill level, experience or resources, there will be some level of painting you can manage that will enhance the game for you and your opponents, blood and plunder rules pdf download. At the next level you can spray them with a basic primary color then pick out a few other colors so they have some interest.
Even spraying white and painting their flesh and one other color like their pants or jacket will go a long ways. The next level of painting takes more effort but is markedly more impressive. The Quickshade will settle in the cracks and crevices which brings the mini to life. Apply a flat finish spray after it dries and your minis will look great.
It takes a good hour or more per mini but the results can be smooth, dramatic and striking. Clean the resin hull, glue a couple wooden pieces to the hull, then prime it with a basic brown you can use as the base wood color, then you can just do some basic contrasting brown colors for the rails and inside walls etc or you can go crazy with all the tiny details. The Quickshade can give you quick and solid results here as well or you can use the Citadel shades. The masts glue together easily and you can use craft foam or parchment paper for sails.
The elastic string included with all ships works great for the rigging. The recommended rigging method is pretty basic but I think basic is smart so you can get models in and out of your ship without ruining all your hard work. You can kind of spend as much time as you want on a ship but you can do a basic paint job on a small ship and get it rigged in 3 hours or less.
About 2 or 3 blood and plunder rules pdf download to build and paint this Tartana. Which should you get? If you can put a little money out, blood and plunder rules pdf download, the Sloop is probably the most flexible ship. The Tartana has two equal sized decks which is an advantage over the Sloop. For a larger ship I would recommend the Light Frigate, blood and plunder rules pdf download. I consider it the strongest war ship in the game. You can play some really good point games with a Light Frigate and you could even use it in point games with no cannons.
Very flexible and powerful ship. I found watching some of the recorded games produced with Beasts of War to be very helpful as well. You can see the game in action and watch peoples apply the various modifiers and faction rules and see how everything comes together in a game. Gaming is really about connecting with other people! There might be a thriving local community you can join but this might be something you have to build up yourself, blood and plunder rules pdf download.
I left a painted Sloop and crew at my local game shop in the display case for a month or two after the first Kickstarter and it generated a good blood and plunder rules pdf download of interest even before the game was widely available!
Offer to do a demonstration. Stores can order Firelock product from Alliance Distribution which nearly every game store works with.
If things go well they can set up an account with Firelock later and get a better discount on larger quantities of product. Try to generate interest with the local wargaming and 40K clubs. Even within the same general area, the tastes of clientele in different shops can vary a lot!
Some cards I had printed up to leave at game stores next to Firelock products. Once you get a player or two interested make sure to play in a game store when you can so people will see the game in action! If you find yourself active in promoting the game, contact Firelock about joining their Quartermaster program and they will support you with some store credit!
You should absolutely join the international community on Facebook as well! Buy yourself a rule book and starter box and start having fun! So much looking forward to getting a starter bundle x2 busy trying to find someone local who sells them other wise will have to get them imported from main dealer.
I always come back here when I want to introduce someone new to this game. Very useful and helpful article! Search for:. What Do I Need to Play? The Rule Book The core rule book is absolutely necessary.
