RULES:
The object of the game is to have the most points at the end. You get points from treasure and controlling islands Layout the board and shuffle the treasure cards. Place 1 treasure face down on each of the islands with a treasure space. Each player picks a ship token and 8 pirate tokens of the same color. The youngest player places 1 pirate token on any empty island except the center skull island, then the next player clockwise do the same until all the islands have 1 pirate on them. Each player puts their ship on the center skull island.

The youngest player goes first then play proceeds clockwise. On your turn move your ship 1 space along the connected path to another island. You may not stay in the same space, you must move. If you land on an island with another player’s pirate on it, you must battle them.

To battle, put a die in your ship and launch it by pressing the lever on the ship’s back. If you roll higher than your opponent, you win and you put one of your pirate tokens on the island and they remove their pirate token from the island. If there is a treasure card on the island, you get to take it facedown next to you, do not look at it.

If your opponent rolls higher or if there is a tie, then they win and keep the island and take the treasure face down for themselves.

If you land on an island with your own pirate on it, then nothing happens and you do not collect a treasure card if present. Play continues until all the treasures have been claimed, then the game ends and players reveal their treasure cards. Each player receives 1 point for each island they control and 1 point for each coin their treasure cards. The player with the most points, wins.

Hello,
I felt confused with the paper instructions and your explanation made the rules clear so I would like to thank you.

I do have a question for you, with a possible answer in my mind, and would like to get your input if possible.
When playing with 2 players, there are 12 islands to inhabit and 6 of the 8 tokens will be used when setting up the game. Each player now has only 2 'extra' pirate tokens...
My inquiry is regarding the battle to conquer the islands as you attempt to collect the treasure chests, there are not enough tokens to play for all the islands... Would the best idea to play out a 2 player round be to use a secondary colour?

Thank you in advance.
