Classes

Accursed Deck Scum

Concept: Accursed Deck Scum features four new, cursed classes for Pirate Borg.

Content:

The oracular Abyssal Lookout, who can't help but gaze into the Abyss...
The Living Figurehead, a poor victim whose suffering magically benefits the ship when lashed to the prow. Part of the ship, part of the crew, indeed...
The Penitent Fowler—the moron that shot the albatross! Inspired by Rime of the Ancient Mariner.
...and the Werebeast, cursed to rampage on nights of the full moon.

Writing: Well written throughout and easily understood. Excellent thought has been given to each Class and it's accompanying Abilities.

Art/design: Impressive use of Artwork to represent each Class is well placed with clear fonts and colour choices to accentuate the whole.

Usability:  If your Players are yearning for more Classes to sink their teeth in to then this offering is worth the time to digest and see if it might fit your current Campaign. Every Class is unique and carries its own merits.

Band O' Misfits

Concept: Three new Classes for Pirate Borg
 
Content: Three new Classes to add to your adventures in The Dark Caribbean. The Mess, The Barnacle, and The Sulphur

Writing: Some typos slipped through the editing on this supplement and the grammar is a touch off in places.  Thematically however, definite Pirate Borg 'feel'.

Art/design: Clever layouts and solid art choices abound in this supplement save for the first entry, the worn canvas background is a bit too prominent where it needs to get out of the way to make the Text easier to discern.

Usability: These are off the beaten path styles of Classes for those who want something a little less pointed in their Pirate. Definitely well detailed enough to get you an interesting Character to set sail with!

Buried at Sea

Concept: Four new Classes to bring to The Dark Caribbean
 
Content: Welcome four new crewmates aboard your ship, damned and blessed in equal measure. New classes contained within these soggy pages:
  • Mutant Champion: A killer "rewarded" for its ferocity with a monstrous form
  • Holy Diver: A deep sea diver festooned in holy relics
  • Sea Witch: A sorcerer whose magic is strongest at sea
  • Devil Dealer: A collector of souls and wielder of hellish gifts
 
Writing: Written in thematic fashion to highlight each Classes features.

Art/design: Largest highlight of this Product, the Artwork sells these Classes every bit as much as the Rules.
 
Usability: Easily inserted into any existing Pirate Borg Campaign, well balanced overall. If you need/want a little 'new blood' in your Campaign look to this supplement.

Devilsworn Bastards

Concept: Two new Character Classes for Pirate Borg
 
Content: Two new Classes: The Powder Monkey Tamer & Mammon's Mutineer

Writing: Both Classes are well written and clearly presented.

Art/design: Some problematic Font and colour combinations make this a little hard on the eyes from time to time, however the artwork itself is well done and edited.

Usability: Two more esoteric Class options to consider for your Campaign. Quite powerful and will require some balance adjustments perhaps, to make them fit with the Core Classes in the Pirate Borg Rulebook.

Scrimshaw

Concept: Four brand new Classes for use in Pirate Borg

Content: 

  • The Angler, a former fisherman turned pirate. Unlike their rowdy compatriots, they have the patience and skill to successfully reel up fish from the inky depths in which they dwell.
  • The Coagulant, a horrific nightmare altered by alchemy gone wrong. To survive, they must fuse their body with that of another, subsuming flesh and bone into themselves to once again become whole.
  • The Reaper, heavily inspired by DEADBOLT from Hopoo Games, the other game with a drug called ash that comes from the corpses of undead. They are skilled assassins and hunters of the damned.
  • The Shipwright, an on-board mechanic to keep boats going through constant wear-and-tear. Their specialized skills let them both repair and modify ships with everything from hull-smashing cannons to wheels.
 
Writing: As one might expect the writing of these Classes is excellent, so much so that this product one the Cabin Fever Game Jam award for Best PC Class.

Art/design: Simply incredibly thematic choices for both art and layout were made in the crafting of this remarkable supplement. It is pleasing to the eye, exceedingly mindful of the setting and a joy to read.

Usability: Any or all of these Classes could be seamlessly added to any Pirate Borg game without worry about Rules Balance which is something often on the mind of any Harbourmaser.

The Alchemist

Concept: New Character Class for Pirate Borg
 
Content: Create your very own Alchemist character for The Dark Caribbean.

Writing: Unfortunately poorly written though the errors are not problematic enough to stop anyone from using the Product.

Art/design: Simple layout, legible if not for the questionable font choices and colour options.

The Crusader

Concept: The Crusader Class
Content: The Crusader is a zealous and battle-hardened warrior dedicated to carrying out the divine will of their chosen deity. Clad in heavy armor adorned with sacred symbols and wielding powerful weapons, they are a formidable force on the battlefield and a symbol of unwavering faith, regardless of if the cause is just. 

Maybe they are part of The Spanish Inquisition (that nobody suspects) or maybe they hunt down heretics who go against the word of Verhu. Or perhaps they a honor another cause? Only you can know.

The Natural Philosopher

Concept: New Character Class for Pirate Borg
 
Content: The ocean of knowledge is vast and filled with monsters... should you choose to chart it, you too may become one! "The Natural Philosopher" is a player class for the game Pirate Borg.

Writing: Something a bit more esoteric in form for this supplement is a departure from the Pirate Borg norm but it is well written and cleverly presented.

Art/design: Colourful and vibrant artwork if a little cluttered.

Usability: This Class would be a good fit for a Player who is perhaps not yet ready to embrace the more eldritch aspects of The Dark Caribbean as it is more of a scholarly pursuit at the beginning.

The Quack

Concept: A tongue in cheek Class for Pirate Borg

Content: Everything you need in a three page supplement to make your very own Quack, a person of questionable knowledge and 'science'.

Writing: As with the class itself the writing is very much steeped in pseudo-science and silly rhetoric but it is quite entertaining.

Art/design: Reminiscent of the old Snake Oil Salesmen out of the old west in the early days of America the design is whimsical but functional in all aspects.

Usability: Something for the silly player in your group.. almost every group has one and this Class simply begs for that treatment.
