'''Pirate Ship''' is an [[Action]]-[[Attack]] card from [[Seaside]]. When you play Pirate Ship, you have two options. You can "attack" other players by making them trash Treasure cards from the top two cards of their deck; if you're successful, your Pirates get a Coin token on your Pirate Ship mat! Alternatively, when you play Pirate Ship, you can choose to exploit the Coins you have and get +{{Cost|1}} per Coin token your pirates have plundered. (This does not use them up.)

* When you first take this card, take a Pirate Ship player mat.
+
* Players revealing a card like {{Card|Moat}} do so before you choose your option.
* If you use the Pirate Ship to trash treasures, a player with just one card left reveals that last card and then shuffles to get the other card to reveal (without including the revealed card); a player with no cards left shuffles to get both of them.
+
* If you choose the first option, you get +{{Cost|1}} per [[Coin token]] on your Pirate Ship [[mat]]; the Coin tokens stay there.  
* A player who still doesn't have two cards to reveal after shuffling just reveals what he can.
+
* If you choose the second option, each other player reveals the top 2 cards of their deck, trashes a revealed Treasure of your choice, if possible, and discards the rest of their revealed cards.  
* Each player trashes one Treasure card at most, of the attacker's choice from the two revealed cards.
+
* Then, if any players did trash a Treasure, you add a Coin token to your Pirate Ship mat (from the supply of tokens).  
* As long as you trashed at least one Treasure card in this way, place a Coin token on your Pirate Ship player mat.
+
* You get at most one Coin token per play of Pirate Ship.  
* You can't get more than one Coin token each time you play Pirate Ship, no matter how many treasures it trashes.
+
* Take a Pirate Ship mat when you first need one.  
* If you choose not to try to trash treasures from the other players, the Pirate Ship is worth one coin for each Coin token on your Pirate Ship player mat.
+
* The Coin tokens are cumulative, so after you have used your Pirate Ships to trash coins 3 times (and you trash at least one Treasure card each time), any Pirate Ship you play could be worth {{Cost|3}}.
+
* Pirate Ship is an Action-Attack and players can reveal Secret Chamber even if you choose to use Pirate Ship for the coin value.

* Coin tokens on your Pirate Ship mat cannot be spent (as the Coin tokens from {{Set|Guilds|Dominion: Guilds}} can be).
  
Although Pirate Ship just says "take a Coin token", the Coin token you take must be placed directly on your Pirate Ship mat, and it cannot be spent during your Buy phase like the [[Coin token]]s earned by means of cards such as {{Card|Baker}} and {{Card|Plaza}}.

== Strategy ==
 +
Before it was removed, Pirate Ship was an exceedingly weak card, whose [[Attack]] was often beneficial to your opponents and whose [[payload]] increased in strength far too slowly for most [[Kingdom]]s.  
  
== Strategy Article ==
+
The fundamental paradox of Pirate Ship is that in order for its payload to reach a useful amount, you need to play it multiple times, which usually entails playing it early in the game; but if you play it early in the game, you’re very likely to [[cycling|cycle]] through your opponents’ bad starting cards and trash their {{Card|Copper|Coppers}} for them, speeding up their progress and removing [[junk]] from their decks. Because of how much it helps your opponents, Pirate Ship is very weak in the early game, and it usually takes too long to generate significant {{Cost}} if you don't start playing it until the late game. Even disregarding the help it gives your opponents, having a [[terminal]] card give you no benefit this turn for {{Cost|1}} on every subsequent play (assuming it hits an opponent’s [[Treasure]]) is not a strong effect in the early game, when you typically want to establish [[deck control]] rather than begin accumulating payload. Additionally, Pirate Ship’s eventual payoff to [[opportunity cost]] ratio is low, as even after two plays it’s at best a [[terminal silver]], or after three plays a terminal {{Card|Gold}}, which compares unfavorably to just buying those Treasures instead of Pirate Ship.
There isn't a strategy article for Pirate Ship.  
+
  
Pirate Ship is a card which can be devastatingly strong in certain circumstances, but which is often deceptively weak. Pirate Ship is a very slow card; the attack often benefits opponents by trashing copper, and it provides no benefit until the attack has hit, and usually only becomes worth the cost of {{Cost|4}} once it has hit a number of times.
+
The other main weakness of Pirate Ship is that Treasures are very often not the best payload cards on the board, and so a strong deck can often be built of mostly [[Action]] cards. This means that Pirate Ship is unlikely either to find a Treasure to trash in the later stages of the game (thus failing to increase its {{Cost}} generation) or to be of any threat to your opponents’ payload.
  
The power of Pirate Ship can vary drastically depending on the number of players; in 3- or 4-player, Pirate Ship has a much lower chance of 'missing' when attacking. Pirate Ship can be powerful if it is played many times per turn such as with {{Card|Throne Room}} or {{Card|King's Court}} and a good source of +Buy, but is weak if there are good actions which give +Coin. (In that case, the attack of Pirate Ship clears out your opponents' Coppers and is a benefit for them!)
+
Pirate Ship can be usable in fairly rare scenarios in which multiple of the above generalizations are not true. When Treasures are the only payload, Pirate Ship may actually have a chance to harm your opponents’ economy. Additionally, with a [[Throne Room variant]] such as {{Card|King's Court}}, it may be possible to play Pirate Ship enough times in the late game for it to generate significant {{Cost}}. Similarly, {{Card|Captain}} makes it easier to consistently play Pirate Ship many times, while also reducing the amount of [[terminal space]] normally needed to do so and providing the flexibility to be played as something other than a terminal [[stop card]], Kingdom permitting. Pirate Ship’s strongest synergy is with {{Project|Capitalism}}, which changes almost all payload cards into Treasures. As such, it greatly increases Pirate Ship’s effectiveness as an Attack while also allowing you to play it in the Buy phase, which removes the need for [[Village (card category)|village]] support.
  
Pirate ship is strongest against [[big money]] strategies, and weaker against [[engines]].  Big money decks are full of coin, so the attack is likely to hit, and these decks also benefit less from the trashing of copper.  Engines, on the other hand, benefit greatly from the trashing of copper.

== Versions ==
=== Playing against Pirate Ship ===
+
===English versions===
{{Card|Lighthouse}} offers a hard counter to Pirate Ship, while also boosting early-game economy in the first few rounds where Pirate Ship has the possibility of reducing buying power. {{Card|Secret Chamber}}, however, offers another counter that, while not quite a hard counter, can be superior in some circumstances: when an opponent plays Pirate Ship, you can choose to top-deck two unwanted Action or Victory cardsIf the player goes ahead with the attack, you benefit from having these cards discarded, and the attack is guaranteed to miss.  This defence works best when you have an action-rich engine and/or have not trashed your starting Estates.

Buying virtual coin can protect against Pirate Ship; {{Card|Fishing Village}} is especially beneficial, as it provides coin roughly equivalent to {{Card|Silver}} while helping set up an engine that will benefit hugely from the trashing of copper.  Any of the [[Peddler variant|Peddler variants]] are also beneficial. Filling your deck with cheap [[cantrips]] ({{Card|Pawn}} is great as it can provide coin too) will also make the attacks less like to hit.

In Multiplayer games, if everyone buys Pirate Ship, it is especially important to make sure that your early game economy is not devastated by the trashing of all your coin. In the absence of virtual coin or a way to block the attack, it can be beneficial to buy a Pirate Ship yourself so that you'll have some source of virtual coinHowever, if you did not open with Pirate Ship, it's usually too late to catch up in these scenarios, both because you will have fewer chances to play the card, and because each time the attack is played, future attacks become less likely to hit.

When there are stronger cards or strategies, the best counter to Pirate Ship can be to ignore it. If a curser like {{Card|Witch}} or {{Card|Mountebank}} is on the board, Pirate Ship can be a slow distraction, allowing opponents to reach {{Cost|5}} faster and fill your deck with curses.  Discard attacks are also often more powerful than Pirate Ship.

This is no happy ending. What I actually had to do was make the card more powerful, despite people thinking it was broken already. Or, replace it, even though people would annoy me by saying, "hooray you got rid of the broken card." But there it is in the set, and it's absolutely one of the weakest cards in the game, even with 4 players. It trashes your opponents' {{Card|Copper}}s! They normally have to work at that themselves, but you do it for them. {{Card|Miser}} is the fixed version, trashing your own {{Card|Copper}}s instead, and it's still weak.

Card text
Choose one: +$1 per Coin token on your Pirate Ship mat; or each other player reveals the top 2 cards of their deck, trashes one of those Treasures that you choose, and discards the rest, and then if anyone trashed a Treasure, you add a Coin token to your Pirate Ship mat.

Pirate Ship is an Action-Attack card from Seaside. When you play Pirate Ship, you have two choices. You can "attack" other players by making them trash Treasure cards from the top two cards of their deck; if you're successful, your Pirates get a Coin token on your Pirate Ship mat. Alternatively, when you play Pirate Ship, you can choose to get +$1 per Coin token your pirates have plundered. (This does not use them up.)

Although Pirate Ship often gets a reputation among inexperienced players as a powerful card, it is actually very rarely effective, and using it often benefits your opponents more than you.

It was removed from the second edition of Seaside and replaced with CorsairCorsair.jpg which has a similar attack but is a stronger card, most notably because it cannot relieve the attacked player of unwanted CoppersCopper.jpg.

[edit] Secret History

This started out as a victory card that was worth more points based on how much treasure you stole with it. It was an actual flavor-based design - what would pirates do? That version seemed cool but just wasn't played often enough. At the same time I was replacing Treasury, and one of the possibilities I was considering was "choose one - gain a counter, or +$1 per counter." I realized I could graft that onto the Thieving of Pirate Ship and that's what happened. Originally you used trashed treasures to track the value of the Pirate Ships, but near the end it switched to counters, which is slightly simpler, as you might have trashed some $2's and $3's, but they still just count as $1 here.

[edit] Retrospective

The story I always tell. It's the first game ever with Pirate Ship. Three players. We all buy Pirate Ship. Someone who bought Pirate Ship wins. And Bill says, "well that was obviously broken." We talk about it for a while, then play the same board again, no changes. This time I don't buy Pirate Ship and I win.

This then was the story of the card, over and over. People saying, how can you be serious about this crazy powerful card, and me beating them by not buying it. Those games sucked; if I lost they would say, "aha see, we were right the whole time, this card is broken." But the card is so bad that I never lost.

This is no happy ending. What I actually had to do was make the card more powerful, despite people thinking it was broken already. Or, replace it, even though people would annoy me by saying, "hooray you got rid of the broken card." But there it is in the set, and it's absolutely one of the weakest cards in the game, even with 4 players. It trashes your opponents' CopperCopper.jpgs! They normally have to work at that themselves, but you do it for them. MiserMiser.jpg is the fixed version, trashing your own CopperCopper.jpgs instead, and it's still weak.
