Booty for Booty is a Dvorak version of the game of the same name, originally made by SUPERSUGA for the Penny Arcade IRC channel and forums.
You are the captain of a surly pirate crew, hoping you can one day get enough booty to trade it in for a mansion and a wife. Not before you've had a few more years of adventure though!
Special Rules
Makin' Yer Crew
Your crew will start with 8 pirates, but you will be able to get more during the game.
Strengths
When you make a new pirate, you start by finding his Strength. Roll a d6 and check the Strength Table.
| Strength Table | ||
|---|---|---|
| Result | Strength | Description |
| 1 | No Strength | Roll on Weakness Table instead. |
| 2 | Swashbucklin' | Stabbin', Tauntin' and Swingin' on ropes all included. |
| 3 | Swaggerin' | Wearing impressive hats, shouting loudly and inspiring fear in others. |
| 4 | Stealin' | Finding and claiming Booty |
| 5 | Shootin' | Firing cannons and pistols. |
| 6 | Choose any! | Choose any Strength. If this is your first 6, roll again. |
A pirate can have a maximum total of 2 Strengths and Weaknesses. For example, 2 Strengths would be okay, as would a Strength and a Weakness.
Legendary Pirates
A pirate with two Strengths is a Legendary Pirate. Check the Legendary Table to see which Legendary Title that pirate has.
| Legendary Table | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Strength 1 | Strength 2 | Legendary Title | Description |
| Swashbucklin' | Swaggerin' | The Terrible | Any Pirates put on a job with this Pirate ignore the effects of Seasick and Scrapper Weaknesses. |
| Swashbucklin' | Stealin' | The Backstabber | Roll whenever this Pirate returns to Port he will murder a few people and gain 1d6 Booty. However, if this roll is a 1 they get thrown in jail until the next time the ship returns to Port. |
| Swashbucklin' | Shootin' | The Bloody | Roll whenever this Pirate would be killed. On 4+ they manage to claw themselves out of the situation somehow and are unharmed. |
| Swaggerin' | Stealin' | The Bastard | This Pirate has an enemy in every Port. Upon arriving in Port they must roll. On a 1 they are killed. On 2-4 they get in a few brawls but only lose a tooth or two. On 5-6 they beat up an enemy so badly they are forced to join the crew out of admiration, roll for a new crewman immediately. |
| Swaggerin' | Shootin' | The Killer | Whenever you wish you may have this Pirate shoot another crewmember dead. This may interrupt any other event or happenings. |
| Stealin' | Shootin' | The Plunderer | Whenever the crew gain any Booty with this Pirate present they may gain an additional d6 Booty. |
Weakness
Pirates can get a Weakness if you roll a 1 on the Strength Table, or through Events in the game.
To find your pirate's weakness, roll a d6 and check the Weakness Table.
| Weakness Table | ||
|---|---|---|
| Result | Weakness | Description |
| 1 | Scummy | This pirate is so repulsive that any non-Scummy pirates will refuse to work with them on jobs. |
| 2 | Scaredy | Whenever there is any sort of Event that would effect this pirate (sea encounter, crew event, island event or port happening) roll. On 1-3 they hide somewhere and take no part in the event. |
| 3 | Seasick | Roll at the start of each week. On 1-2 the Pirate can do nothing but vomit and sleep until the next week. |
| 4 | Swigger | Each week this Pirate must roll. On 1-3 they consume an extra barrel of grog and must roll again. On 4+ they drink no additional Grog. If there is no Grog left for them to drink they must roll on the Sober Pirate table. |
| 5 | Scrapper | Roll whenever this Pirate is set on a job. On a 1 they get into a brawl with another Pirate on that job, preventing both of them from doing any work. |
| 6 | Feature | The pirate has no Weakness, but gains a Feature instead. |
Features
No two Pirates on a crew may be identical. If two match one of them must roll for a Feature.
For example, if a crew is rolled with three Pirates with Stealin' as their only Strength two of them must get a Feature, and they both must get different Features.
This rule also applies to new pirates that are recruited at port.
To get a Feature, roll on the Feature Table.
