so for a journey man league a friend of mine picked up broadside bard, a buccaneer, and a mariner almost completing the starting battle box, but then gave them to me and started hords lol

Im not in this league but i am interested in expanding on this. where should i go. im liking the pirate theam.

To do the Talion charter properly, you need Captain Shae as well as Bart.

Things to pick up,

Unit of Sea Dogs with Mr Walls their UA.

Unit of Press Gangers

The Commodore Cannon(only usable with Shae)

Bosun Grogspar

Lord Rockbottom

Doc Killingsworth

First Mate Hawk

Master Gunner Dougal MacNaile

And lastly, the Galleon. Other jacks to consider would be a Mangler or a Nomad. Pirate lists handle infantry really well, but they can have trouble with jack or beast heavy lists.


That is basically what you get with Pirates. You'll also be able to run Shae's theme force with this(you might want a second unit of either Press Gangers or Sea Dogs), also known as list of the super solos.

Its all about the amazing character solos who turn the Sea Dogs and Press Gangers from meh to awesome. The problem is, in a tournament you basically can't run 2 pirate lists because of character restrictions.

Both Shae and Bart usually only run 1-2 jacks, only 1 if you have a Galleon. Bart really really makes the Galleon amazing.
