A NOTE ABOUT ASSETS AND

PROGRESS MOVES
Some assets include abilities which might be applied
to a variety of moves. This is usually phrased as “when
you make a move to [blank].” However, most asset
abilities apply only to action rolls. Unless an asset
specifically defines a benefit for a progress move,
you may not leverage an asset ability when making a
progress roll.

FLAGSHIP
NAME

acts as supply for you and your allies when
taking action or suffering a cost related to
shipwide gear and provisions.
● When you Finish an Expedition (dangerous
or greater) on a seagoing journey and score
a hit, this expedition strengthened your ties
to your ship and crew. You and your allies
may mark 1 tick on your bonds legacy track.

choose the force of the hit: 1, 2, or 3. Then,

to the outcome of the move, Withstand
Damage and suffer damage equal to the
force of the hit.
● When you Secure an Advantage or Gain

speed and sailing headlong toward a threat,
roll +integrity or +heart, whichever is higher.

hit with a match when using this ability, you
damage a vital component; mark progress.

mark unprepared.
● Your hold is fitted with secret compartments.

and your allies take +1 momentum. On a
miss, the luck is foul; you and your allies Lose

benefits until you next check its luck.
● When you make a move +linked stat while
