In Pirate Cards, the cards themselves determine if you win or lose. As such, cards like the Cartographer can turn the tide, giving you a huge advantage over your oppontent. The Cartographer lets you draw an extra card each turn, with a maintenance cost of two focus gems. This tends not to be too serious if brought out later in the game, when there's plenty of magic and it's time to overwhelm your foe with summoned creatures.

I continue to plug away at the fourth level, having lots of fun customizing each of the beasties. The NWN prototype had them all looking about the same, while the NWN2 version has slight variations in height and coloration. I've also been varying the weapons a bit more, mostly to give players an opportunity to pick up their weapon of choice.
