Adventure and glory await in Pieces of Eight, the rousing combat game of rival buccaneer ships on the high seas. You play the game with a stack of metal pirate coins held in one hand that represents your ship. The coins you choose and the order in which you place them determine your ship’s strengths, and you use the special abilities of your coins to destroy your opponent’s coins one by one. The goal is to expose the Captain coin buried deep in the middle of your adversary’s ship, then take him out. Each ship set includes a rulebook, 16 die-struck metal coins, and a velvet game bag in a 6" x 9" x 1" box. Launch date: September 2006.
