The most traditional way to win a match of Pirate Cards is to get your foe's avatar down to zero hit points. A more challenging way is to run your opponent out of cards. Cards like the Privateer can help with this, removing four cards from your opponent's deck and two from your own. Like all creatures that can be sacrificed, timing and luck can play a significant role. It's best to sacrifice your creature right before it dies, getting the most out of it as well as its special benefit.

I made a lot of progress with the module yesterday and early this morning. The fifth level is feeling increasingly fleshed out, now with lighting and more placeables. I put together a fun effect involving floating objects flying about a room. Hopefully it'll raise a few eyebrows.

I'm behind on correspondence again, something that will probably get worse before it gets better. I did manage a lengthy exchange with our semi-famous guest writer, who I'm still hoping to lure with my wiley charms.

I'm going to see if I can hunker down and finish up some last minute things for the Pirate Cards game, as I'm hoping to have an open beta right after NWN2's release. I fixed a bug with one of the card graphics this morning (the Privateer, in fact). I also have some more sound clips I need to chop up and attach to dialog.

Slowly getting there.
