Dan,

Cool review. Let me state that I agree 100% with importing the combat styles from Arrowflight into Bloode Island to make it more cinematic.

For spells, I suggest taking a look at either Santa's Soldiers, or That Old Black Magic for Mean Streets to get spell ideas from for making spells for Bloode Island. Both takes are different, but might give some good reference points when making spells for BI.

I have not had a chance to run BI yet, so your comments on the ship combat rules I will take to heart. I wanted to write up some ships from Asia (junks and such) for a possible East Asia Sea supplement I've been toying with writing (and another excuse to use the Arrowflight combat moves, so we can have kung fu pirates!), and the fact that asian pirates tended to use smaller ships means they will get creamed when they take on a galleon.
