We followed this up with the re-release of Reiner Knizia’s Pirat. A fairly straightforward card game where you either play a ship card in the hope of it sailing to port safely to gain you gold, or you play pirate cards on other people’s ships to try and wrest control of the treasure for yourself. Mark G and I seemed to be playing exactly opposite games. He kept launching ships and I kept attacking with pirates. Both of us had hands that were so unbalanced that we were forced into this. It took several rounds before I saw a ship card. A shame really.

Nige managed to steer some crucial high-scoring ships home cheaply and this proved enough for him to grab the win.
