The dead walk, the empires are bleeding out, and ASH is worth more than gold.

Pirate Borg is a rules-light, brutally lethal RPG of the Dark Caribbean — undead galleons, arcane relics, black powder, and a drug ground from the bones of the dead. Roll d20, add an ability, beat the Difficulty Rating. Players roll to attack AND to defend; the GM never rolls a die in combat. There are no levels and no experience points — you simply get better, and sometimes worse. At zero hit points you are Broken. Below zero you are gone. This system ships everything a table needs: nine classes, the full equipment and arcana library, a bestiary of the Scourge, a complete naval combat system with a fleet of vessels, and sixty-one random tables that do the worldbuilding for you.
