Felt like it took the more tedious parts of Merchants & Marauders and doubled down on them. The base Broadsides doesn't involve upgrading your boat, having a character, making moral/career choices, but boy howdy does it have a 6 step process for firing a cannon!

Like the targeting system but can be very brutal if one guy gets all the right cards and you get none

A really great game. Tight, thematic and far better than games with just "health". It can be a little heavy on the brain at some points, but I think that's a good thing. It definitely doesn't deserve the negativity it gets, but I will say this; it is nothing like Merchants & Marauders, so don't go into it thinking it's similar. It is, however, a solid 2-player ship fighting game.
