Even briefer Write-Ups phase… dark days of limited rambling ahead! β›ˆοΈπŸŒͺ️

Hello all! Having recently gotten back from BGG CON (which was absolutely fabulous as usual!!!), and having weathered and greatly enjoyed the time honored tradition of the Thanksgiving celebration (huge meal, insane kitchen logistics, and plenty of wine to smooth out the edges), and now preparing to complete Christmas decorating AND finally… getting packed for PAX Unplugged later this week… I bring you…

Lying Pirates – The Race for the Pirate Throne… the Deluxe Kickstarter Edition!!

Sound the alarm, mateys!

Hoist the jib… and load the cannons!

Arrrrrrggghhhhh! Β 

Blast the Scallywags!

Protect the Rum barrels, ye’ mongrels!

Where is me’ eye patch?!?

Ahem… where was I? 😬

[perhaps I miss my Navy days more than I realized?]

Ah yes… it’s time for the “Bundle” details!

This Upstart listing is “just” the Deluxe Kickstarter Edition of Lying Pirates – The Race for the Pirate Throne!

Please note that this is the Kickstarter Edition, so the Ghost Ship and Mystic Fog Kickstarter Exclusive tiles are included! And, since this is the deluxe edition this version of the game it also includes the Curse of the Dead Expansion AND all the insanely cool deluxe upgrades.

What are those upgrades, you ask? πŸ˜‰

Six bamboo cups (BAMBOO… SO SWEET), metal coins (of course), linen finish (niiiiccceeee), the Map Expansion (yes, please), and both wooden and plastic ship miniatures (so you can decide which you prefer)!!! Β This is an amazing deluxe reimagining of a really fun game… and of course, I HAD to carry this in the shop (and have it my own collection… me being a pirate and all). πŸ˜‰

Original campaign link!

You can visit the original campaign HERE to see all the juicy bits that are included with the Kickstarter Deluxe Edition. This is a REALLY solid game that will bring many smiles to the game table… and is quite approachable for friends and family who maybe aren’t as hardcore as we are about games. Of course, it will also bring quite a few pirate accents and a boatload of “Arrrrr… matey” to the table. This will be quite amusing for a while.. then get a bit overdone.. and finally after a respite it will get funny again. Arrrrr… ye’ must trust me, matey. πŸ˜‚πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ

If you have ANY questions.. please reach out! I am here to help!

I’m usually unless I’m driving, flying (usually in a jet) or asleep! πŸ˜…πŸš—βœˆοΈπŸ’€

Again… sooo sorry, everyone! I’ll get back in the swing at some point… argh! πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈπŸ˜­

Exceptionally late-to-the-pirate-ball Upstart signing off! ❀️🫑

Description

Lying Pirates Deluxe KSLying Pirates – The Race For the Pirate Throne! The Deluxe Kickstarter Edition!!! Β This is an INCREDIBLY fun, immersive themed, dice-laden game of chance and strategy that will have you singing Pirate songs by your third rum! I mean, your third dice roll. Β Ahem. πŸ˜‰πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈπŸΉπŸŽ‰

Lying Pirates is a first to finish fast-paced dice game for 2-4 players (+2 with expansion)

You are the captain of your ship and the dice you have is your crew.

The game plays in a number of rounds where every round consists of three phases. Betting, sailing and action phase.

The betting phase: Inspired by the classic game Liars Dice , this poker-like mechanic will test your bluffing and probability skills.

The sailing phase: All except the loser sail forward on the map and battle for their event/tile. Some events you really want to explore and some you want to avoid at all cost.

The action phase: To aid you on your journey you’ll have action cards on hand. Play these strategically to attack opponents and defend or upgrade your crew.
