I've actually got TWO mods of the mod -- one's a simplified version for
the Frag, and one's for a backup scenario if we need to run something
else at the con (if we get a lot of walk-ins on Saturday, for example.)
Otherwise, I might run it for GZG-ECC X.

The full version has three types of cannons, with 3 six inch range
bands,
and changed some stuff so when all your damage is gone there's a chance
your ship will be adrift, sink or will catch fire and go boom.	I also
have
some other things I'm playing with, but I'm not convinced the extra
complexity is worth it e.g. tracking wind direction and have that
affect thrust (whether you're running, reaching, beating, in irons),
and declaring whether you're firing at the hull or firing at the
rigging.  (The declaration isn't the problem, the thing is you have
to change the way thrust damage is handled to make rigging fire work.)

There are also a bunch of changes to the SSDs, simply because of the new
types of ships WizKids has put out this past year.

I think all of this may be a sign I've been reading too many books on
the
age of Fighting Sail.  (8-)
