FLYING GANG - DT Preview with Mark Streed

About Flying Gang, from BoardGameGeek:

In the Flying Gang, you take command of a small ship and try to gain leadership of the Flying Gang. The Flying Gang was founded in the 17th century and was able to establish its own pirate empire for around 5 years. Among the most famous members were pirates such as Benjamin Hornigold, Henry Jennings, Edward Teach alias Blackbeard or Anne Bonny...... Flying Gang is a turn-based game for 2-4 players with some historical events. The player who has collected the most pirate points at the end of the game immediately goes into a PVP battle against the captain of the Flying Gang. The strength of the captain only becomes apparent during the course of the game as this is controlled by political cards. The captain of the Flying Gang gets all the expansions that players can buy from these cards. The game lasts 8 rounds and only one of four cards is drawn in each round. For example, the Thirty Years' War, Western Design or Holmes Bonefire. It is therefore impossible to predict how strong the captain will be in the end. To gain pirate points, players can raid towns, attack other ships, recover treasures, fulfill quests. By raiding neutral ships or historical pirates, the player receives loot, which he can then sell in the harbors to buy improvements or a better ship. In Flying Gang there is an easy-to-understand combat system like rock-paper-scissors. There are many different cards in the game. Sea movement cards, treasure cards, equipment cards, political cards and quest cards. Are you ready to take up the challenge and become the leader of the Flying Gang?
