Pirates is a next expansion to Neuroshima Hex 3.0, the iconic area control game about the world of Neuroshima. A pirate flag fluttered over the Caribbean islands where King Contamination and Queen Neo-Jungle would rule. The gangsters of the seas have a few surprises for their enemies... The new army plays by unprecedented rules, extending the standard Battlefield with special Water Spaces, to which only Pirates have access. The large quality of battle tiles allows them to control the pace of the game, which is crucial when planning in the headquarters location throughout the game. Pirates weakness is the low Initiative and lack of Toughness, as well as the negligible Mobility of non-floating units. Remember that the Pirate Army cannot be used when playing with the Expanded Battlefield rules (5 and 6 player games, or expanded 4 player games). -description from publisher
