Their stats will be included in this description at the end. This Set may also be found in the customs database. At the time of making this fleet, the abilities and point costs of these crew have already passed through public judgment both in the custom game pieces channel on  the discord, and in the forum chat on Pirates with Ben. They received little to no feedback requesting changes, so at least for this challenge, I will consider them \u0022legal customs\u0022.\n-The Divers event is also implemented in this fleet, but is not available for fleet building on psm. \n\nPiece-by-piece strategy breakdown:\n\n-Akua Lapu: Manned by Captain Flint and Skyme the Monkey, the Akua will be ruthlessly searching for treasure-laden ships to make prey of. Captain Flint\u0027s cannon bonus will make the Akua\u0027s guns nigh impossible to miss with, and Skyme\u0027s tendency to steal everything he can grab, will fill the ship\u0027s four open cargo spaces. Add in Flint\u0027s Secret Hold, and the two make a dynamic duo, ready to attack and steal to their greedy hearts\u0027 desires. \n\n-Greed\u0027s Hammer: Aboard the Greed\u0027s Hammer, we have Gentleman Jocard, maximizing every last inch of space in her cargo hold, for yet unclaimed treasures. Also aboard the Hammer will be Killian Jones, a captain who doubles as an explorer. His ability to serve on any ship may bump his point cost, but combining those two abilities more than make up for it. And of course the Hammer herself. Can\u0027t make a greed fleet without Greed\u0027s Hammer, now can we? Her +2 gold bonus certainly fulfills an angle of greed, making her money more valuable than it should be.\n\n-Jolly Mon: An iconic duo among the pirates, would any fleet really be complete without the Jolly Mon and the Hag of Tortuga? Furthermore, can you really get more Greedy than weaseling your way into more points to build your fleet? I feel I can rest my case, here.\n\n-Golden Rose: Commanded by the terrible Lord Sam Sinister, the Golden Rose is prepared to strike enemies where it hurts most: Their Homes. The Rose isn\u0027t just capable of stealing directly from an enemy Home Island, but also adds value to her spoils when she reaches her own home. The Red Rampage will be joining the Rose\u0027s crew, aiding in boarding actions that will prove to be quite lucrative, with the Lord\u0027s tendency to both empty enemy cargo holds, and overfill his own.\n\n-Knife\u0027s Edge: Lastly, the true wildcard, Captain Fletcher and his Knife\u0027s Edge. Ever the risk-taker, Fletcher will serve to help tag-team enemy ships and reduce them to no masts for boarding parties. And should the circumstances arise, he\u0027ll be more than happy to engage in a boarding party, himself. \n\n-Divers: Should the Akua or Knife\u0027s Edge be too successful with their cannons, or encounter an opponent with Secret Hold, this event will make accurate cannons just as good as Hoarding Gold.\n\n-Custom crew: \n\n\u2022Captain Nathaniel Flint\nPoints: 7\nAbility: Captain. Secret Hold. This ship gets +1 to her cannon rolls against ship that are carrying gold.\n\n\u2022Lord Sam Sinister\nPoints: 6\nAbility: If this ship succeeds at a boarding action, she may take as much treasure from the other ship as she can carry. Other crew placed on this ship don\u2019t take up cargo space. This ship can only be assigned up to four crew.\n\n\u2022Killian Jones\nPoints: 5\nAbility: Privateer.* Captain. Explorer.\n\n(*Privateer: This piece may use its abilities on any ship, but it gains the Loyal: X keyword for its flag faction.)"}
