Ever wanted to partake in highway robbery on the high seas as a seventeenth- century pirate? Now, you can! Oh, Ship!, the first in a series of historically-themed board games from the Crescent Moon Design Studio, lets you loot other ships, sack towns, loot, pillage, and plunder the Spanish Main... all from the comfort of your own home!

Fashioned from birch, the historically authentic Caribbean map is burned into the wood, complete with towns and place names. The ocean and towns are handpainted and each game comes complete with four hand-crafted ships. Each of the dies are handmade of maple with numbers and symbols burned in.

Each game comes with three decks of cards --sea cards, land cards, and town cards-- that are the heart of Oh, Ship! Also included is hand-made wooden coins made to resemble gold coins in varying denominations and plaquards to keep track of your conquests and adventures. For instance, should you come out on the losing end of tripping off the gang plank, you'll get to keep an "eyepatch" plaquard with you on your journey. All pieces come contained in an attractive treasure chest.

As you move through your pirating life, you might run into such famous privateers as Sir Henry Morgan; you can be titled by various governors and gain lands and money for doing great deeds for the Crown.
