The pirate card for the day is the Copper Automata. Though seemingly wimpy, it's pretty good at sucking up damage and distracting more powerful foes. It also has a fairly dramatic healing bonus should you sacrifice it. You can voluntarily destroy certain of your own creatures, giving a one-time bonus of varying benefit. If you time it right, you can sacrifice it right before it dies, to great benefit.

I continue to polish and enhance the pirate card game. I may end up making some custom visual effects, and perhaps some custom GUI elements as well. I also started in with the conversion of the first module. I'm busy getting icons for all my items, building areas, and slowly getting things ready. It'll take some time, but hopefully I can get something ready for testing soon after launch. I'm also excited to see folks are already working with the MDB format. Hopefully I can get the flintlocks in the game sooner than I thought.

As an aside, there's an artist drawing 100 pirates in 100 days. Some are fairly amusing.

Also, if anyone knows of a talented texture artist, please let me know. We're starting to see model import/export tools being developed and I'd really like to finish up those wonderful ships that Raz started. The payment is your standard fare - empty promises of grog and loose women, and perhaps some recognition from the community for a job well done.
