A few years later is better than not hearing anything back, I hope?

- I did not encounter any black boxes overlapping any of the text
- The tables have a lot of information in them, and there is quite a variety of information, but I don't think half the information in the pdf is really useful unless you're really looking to have an incredibly granular game. Lots of Wind Speeds, how long changing a sail takes, what kinds of sails mean what to your speeds, how effective you skeleton crew is, what kind of captain is aboard, how barnacle buildup will effect speeds.

Great resource for those wanting to integrate sailing ships into your game. The book has information for the mundane things you need to know to create the feel for a swashbuckling adventure - distances you can see while at sea, rate of speed of sailing vessels, rules for boarding vessels, giving stats for NPC crews and how their experience and numbers influence the ships performance.

Layout of the book is clean and clear and the author uses good examples to show how the tables would be used to arbitrate an action. Worth the $4 if you want to integrate rules for ship engagements in your game without adopting rules that are overly complex or burdensome. Maintains the 5e approach to rules being just chewy enough so DMs are not making it all up as they go along. Allows DMs to be consistent in their world.

Hi,
could you clarify what the 27 different tables and charts are? Because many Tables and Charts always sounds good but sometimes has nothing to it

There are strange black boxes overlaying some text throughout the pdf and I can't get them to go away.

Honestly, I don't know what the problem could be. Contact me via Black Shark Enterprises webpage (www.blacksharkenterprises.com), explain the problem again, make sure to leave your drivethrurpg (or whatever) email, and we'll get the problem fixed. Sorry if this seems like a run-around, but I just want to track the problems on my own website as well as the drivethru sites. Thanks.

The quick preview does work, but the main preview does not. I have a support ticket submitted. Thank you.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
