There are two Blackbeard versions (1990s and 2008). I looked into the game recently, and from what I have read, folks seem to appreciate the game, that is once they figured out the rules.

I look forward to hearing folk's opinion because I am on the fence. Thanks for posting Uli.

I have the early Avalon Hill edition, its pretty good from what i recall (haven't played it for years).

Noteworthy for the excllent edition of "The General" that covered various aspects of the game, including the infamous "Governor's Daughter" table (which was aimed at giving a slightly less "Depp-esque" view of piracy, but which didn't make it into the printed version :)

Blackbeard and merchant and marauders, are they nearby the same ?
Which one would you prefer?
