Pirates of the Revolution


Pirates of the Revolution is the third installment of the constructible strategy game Pirates of the Spanish Main by WizKids. As its name suggests, it takes place during the Revolutionary War.

Set Details

Pirates of the Revolution contains a total of 144 new ships, crew, forts, and treasure, printed on a deep blue background with the star expansion symbol printed in the corner.
The Revolution set expands the role of the American fleet, previously introduced as a Super Rare ship in Crimson Coast, with 22 new ships, plus a host of unique crew including John Paul Jones. The expansion includes reinforcements for the original factions from the Spanish Main and Crimson Coast sets. It also contains 4 Super Rare pieces: a Pirate chainshot specialist, Wesley, and 2 ships - Star of Siam, and Asp.
In the 2005 Christmas season, WizKids released 6 collectible tins containing Revolution packs in an Unlimited Edition. The game pieces are the same, but the collector numbers are preceded by the letters "UL", and 4 new ships were added; the Hangman's Noose, the Red Curse, the Concord, and the Franklin. These tins were mostly sold in mass-market retail outlets like Toys "R" Us and Target. By early 2006 the unlimited packs were showing up in regular hobby stores as well.
