Pirates CSG Podcast #68: 3D Printing and Making Ships with Vulkan of CustomPiratesCSG!

Vulkan’s Etsy shop: https://tidd.ly/34GbwZ0   (affiliate link)

His STL files: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4805501

Vulkan is one of the modern legends of Pirates CSG, having pioneered a DIY method of producing both custom and replica ships via 3D printing and decaling. His efforts from 2021 and beyond have been instrumental in the game's continuation.  He was also a key collaborator in the development of Pirates of the Golden Seas, as his knowledge and expertise greatly helped shorten my learning curve and 3D printing troubleshooting.

Questions of the Day: 

(Ben) If you design any digital artwork for Pirates CSG, which is your preferred program to use?

(Vulkan) If you make your own custom ship, what do you want it to be? (in-depth design, ship type, etc.)

Article mentioned: https://all3dp.com/4/ai-algorithms-set-to-replace-all-those-3d-printer-settings/

Sorry for the audio issues on my end - used a different mic setting but it seems it wasn’t worth it.

Pirates CSG Podcast: Mike Mulvihill Supercut

Questions of the Day:

Ben: Would you buy a similar but not compatible version of the Pirates of the Spanish Main IP from Wizkids? (similar theme and artwork, but not compatible with the original CSG)

Mike: Would you be interested in a scenario model of play?

How do you play the game?  Do you play it for a 30 minute quick game, or larger games that take longer?

Would you have liked to see the minor faction storylines in more of the sets?

Mike Mulvhill is one of the true giants of Wizkids Pirates CSG history, having designed the majority of the game pieces!  He was heavily involved in numerous aspects of the game from Spanish Main through Rise of the Fiends, and helped with certain aspects on Fire and Steel.  The game was basically his in terms of game design, concept creation, game mechanics and gameplay concepts, as well as rules, factions, and the specific individual game pieces.
