Port Royal

 

Pirate captains are meeting in Jamaica and gamble their loot. In front of each captain lie 4 ships, each can carry one kind of loot up to 22t. Loot comes as cards with values from 10 to 100 t, 9 of these cards are laid out. Then players play a trick taking game with a second deck of cards, 8 cards to a player and 2 on the table. At first the right to determine trump, the starting player and the choice of first loot are auctioned off against loot expectations. Trump and color must be met unless I cannot or do not want that loot card, a klabauter card can turn the trick colorless and the highest card played wins the trick. Special loot cards can change loading capacity of a ship or value of loot, if a ship is loaded with more than 22 tons, it sinks.
