Salty Dogs

In Salty Dogs you take on the roll of a ship and its crew with each member of your band of sailors being represented by a dice of their own. The game is set within a world lost to a catastrophic flood. The waters rose without warning, decimating the landscape and leaving it as nothing but a disparate collection of island ruins and displaced communities. The game involves exploring a connected series of hex maps, created by drawing cards and marking what is discovered on printable Hex grids. Your ship and crew are free to explore the map over numerous days, with players taking up to 6 actions each day, often interrupted by encounters and events. The PDF includes the general rules of play, important elements to track, the order of phases and the actions players may take during each day of travel along with tables to roll on when creating encounters and newly discovered locations. At the end of each game day record the successes and failures faced by the crew and tell the story of a world and its inhabitants once thought lost forever. There are additional printable pages of map tiles, crew sheets and log book pages also available to download if the game is purchased for $6.00 or more.
