Pirate World Boss Quest (Turn 3): Boardin' Party Melee (+ rule rollback)
Objective: HMS Boaty McCannonmonger be dead in the water. Finish her off!
The scene:
A massive Man o’ War of the Royal Navy, sent to destroy Deadman’s Bay, now floats helplessly. Major devastation has befallen the humongous vessel thanks to the sustained attacks, ambushes, and cannonfire of many brave pirate captains. Sails destroyed, massive hull damage, and the death of her captain, has left the remaining crew devasted. The morale which once drove those limey bastards onward to an “assured victory” has been all but drained.
Meanwhile, a boardin’ party lead by @drlobes has taken up positions on the deck, while the lone Skeleton Cap’n Bone-a-part (@wwwiebe) be climbin’ up the nets on the starboard bow. @the.partisan.spy’s Iron Storm remains nearby, along with @kerrislravenhill’s Bloody Raven.
The alarm has been sounded by a lookout, and the remainin crew of HMS Boaty McCannonmonger have been riled to defend what’s left of her wreckage.
It be time to finish this. Shall the boardin’ parties clear out the crew and take control of the ship? Maybe artillery will destroy the Royal Man o’ War first? We shall find out in turn 3:

With all me available crew, I lead me own boarding party and head straight for the helm and captain's quarters. We will cut the beast off at the head! Left on board the DISTRESS is me valued Skeleton Crew, (some be actual animated skeletons!) and the visiting Siren's from the Capn. Axey contingent 😍
@piratedice Throw Them BONES!!!
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 10
While the crew was plannin' to jump overboard and swim to safety, they notice more skeletons awaitin' them on an adjacent ship. @underground and his crew, arrrm'd with flintlock pistols, slay five of the frightened and defenseless crewmen.
10 crewmen remain. Also those 10 crewmen are paralyzed with fear from seeing all the super spooky skeletons.
When I said skeleton crew, I really meant
☠SKELETON CREW!☠
shiver me timber! 🤣🤣
Go on and get them, captain :)

While all these pirate scum is fighting over scraps, my crew and I stay at Deadman's Bay to steal all treasures deposited at the Bones Knuckle Bank, also known as "BKB, yours someone's else treasure is safe".
I order my ruthless mermaids to make holes at every ship in the bay and to make my escape even easier.
And why would I do all that?
Well... I am a pirate! @piratedice
Oh, yes... How could I forget about that... My parrot is a double-agent spy. As he heard my plans he flew away to warn all other pirates about my attempt. I guess we are going to have roasted parrot for dinner boys!
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 9
@the.partisan.spy wait, is the parrot with or against ye?
Also, taking the 9 as the bank heist and rolling the @piratedice again for the mermaid attack.
(Technically that's 2 actions this turn, just sayin'. Gonna incur some negative modifiers.)
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 4

RIP Hercules
🦜 A fine-feathered friend and conversationalist he was 😿😢
Must. Not. Downvote.
Your joke disgraces me best friend.
You got the wrong guy, Partisan Spy was the one eating him!
😱
The captain and crew of the Phoenix wanted to capture the ship, plunder its booty, and add its masts to our trophy collection, but the opportunity to sow chaos is worth more than any trophy. So we target the ship's hull and roll the @piratedice in an attempt to sink her with @drlobes's crew and @wwiebe still aboard.
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 8
@miryam Phoenix's cannons blow a massive hole through the ship's hull, rockin' the ship hard and throwin' everyone on board off balance. HMS Boaty McCannonmonger's hull has been breached, and the magnificent ship begins to sink.
@piratedice will tell us how many turns before the Man o' War is totally submerged (roll/2).
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 7
3 turns to escape safely or somehow fix the big hole.

I've been busy staying at the "Salty Tavern" lending Lizzie a hand. I heard about a lot of gossip about booty and some tall tales being woven.
@pirate dice
@piratedice
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 10
@battleaxe
Lizzie gets a lot of help and is very appreciative.
Now fer that 10...this will remain a secret fer now.
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 3
Let's just say this roll was to determine crew that came to the fray. It's a big ship, so let's multiply this by 5...15 crew members emerge to fight off the pirates on board.
Ye throw the old knuckle bones and roll a 3
