I was kinda meh on the idear then my music player decided to play me this song today and idears hit me! https://youtu.be/S9zcieO7Plw I think there are grounds for some good stories if done right.

Are there any examples in miniatures/comics (etc.) of a nautical/pirate based "thing" that looks completely different from anything historical or previously found in other fantasy? Genuine question, as Google drew me a blank. I mean, water is still water and ships are still ships. I can't see how you can deviate too far from water and ships (and anchors, sails, barrels, chests, tentacled sea monsters, etc.) and yet remain "nautical" or "piratey". To be honest, I found that ship image to be the single most exciting teaser thing I have seen since AoS came out. I love nautical stuff - especially dark nautical stuff.

Not full on Pirates, but Pirates are just short hand these days for the 'age of sail' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menkeroth Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Well, ghostly pirates and especially vampires would be quite good in any case, even if they will be quite classical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuneBrush Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Just had a freeze-frame moment on the ship. There's nothing really to indicate that it's an undead ship or anything along this lines - to all intent and purposes it's a ship with some scrappy sails and that's it. Possibly a Bermuda triangle moment? Ship vanishes for a number of years before coming back devoid of sailors? Maybe it's a crewless ship that is a portent to something bigger...

MacDuff Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 For me the portents don't yet portend anything I can get my head around. As the Magic 8-Ball says, "Ask again later". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
