Raiding Parties: Golden Age of Piracy (2012)

About this game

Raiding Parties is a pirate themed deck-building game in which you are the commander who selects a crew to hire as part of your Raiding Party, and then players will test their fate on the battlefield! All of the artwork has been created by Don Maitz (the creator of the Captain Morgan Spiced Rum Logo) including the card template and the game logo. This is a fast paced game of pirate battles where each card has weapons and abilities that "hit" on certain flips from a separate deck of 52 playing cards.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
