Pirates CSG LOT Barbary Corsairs 22 Galley/5 Named Crew/17 Asst. Crew Pirates BC

Description: Pirates CSG Barbary Corsair Lot of 22 Gally’s, 7 Pre-built, 15 Unpunched. 5 “Named Crew” and 17 “Regular” Crew (Captains, Specialists, more all pictured). All original from hull to mast, no replacement/broken pieces of any sorts. Collection (built and unpunched both) has been stored away until now!!!! The Pirates of Barbary Coast Set is the only set that contained NO Pirate Ships, and even the British, Spanish, French and Americans saw 5 ships per nation. The Corsairs also only have Rare and Common ships for whatever reason, but the Firepot Specialist are Uncommon. Barbary Corsairs, like their historical counterparts are all Gally’s that roamed the ports in North African countries, holding sailors and ships until paid a “duty”. Eventually, the other Nations (especially a young America with a tiny navy) figured that they should put the Ransom Money to better use by building their own Navy to deal with these “Pirates” of the Mediterranean Sea. (Hence the Marine song with “To the shores of Tripoli”). At a glance, The Barbary Corsairs it would seem are not going to win many out and out gun battles, (see using Pirate Crew) as their Cannon numbers are super varied, with Gallies having 3, 4, 5 S/L cannons. But that’s not what these Galleys and their crews are made up for. They are excellent boarders, super fast base speeds to get the gold quickly and cargo space to hold it. Ships with “shoot then move” to get out of trouble and enough crew to really take over a classic Treasure Style Game. Former Pirate Jack Hawkins is here now under the Barbary Flag and allows pirates to crew the ship per his keyword. The Terror of Gibraltar can use Pirate crew as well, so they DO have some great Pirate Crew to man these. Others can help with boarding bonuses and even make those Cannons better, so it is possible to give these some better cannon values. But again, look at the Ships/Crew to make the fleet you need when playing the Barbary Corsairs. A fun set that often gets overshadowed by others, but a very interesting historical addition for some Xebec style close to the Coast sailing ships. Oh, did I mention they can still move with their oars, so the enemy who doesn’t sink one faces a possible Marine or Musketeer shot from a mastless ship. Pretty cool… and a new mechanic in the game was born. Hit and Run, love the Rare 1 masters! They can MOVE!!!!
