In February 1678, after a long career of piracy, Henry Morgan cleverly manages to get himself named Governor of Jamaica, charged with driving out pirates and buccaneers! Rather than doing that, he invites all his former associates and brothers-in-arms to settle there, where they are able to finally enjoy the fruits of their activities with total impunity. 30 years later, the Great Challenge is organized to celebrate his nomination in true style: a race around the island, at the end of which the winning team is the one having amassed the greatest quantity of gold in its holds. All aboard!
Race around Jamaica and return with the greatest fortune in Jamaica Second Edition. Each round, the captain rolls the morning and evening dice, then every pirate secretly chooses an action card that determines how their ship will move or which goods they will load during both parts of the day.
Manage food for long voyages, gold for port fees and gunpowder for battles while deciding when a treasure detour is worth losing ground. Ships sharing a space fight with cannon fire, giving the victor opportunities to steal cargo or treasure before the final dash to Port Royal.
