Hi BGDF
After a few posts here and there I have now added the rules and playing pieces to the My Uploads section. There is also a photo of a mock game in progress. I was calling it Fliesespiele (Tile Game) as a working name, but can't see the point in not just calling it what it was conceived as: crazy scots pirate fun. Fliesespiele may end up being the label I use for all my 5x5 board games.
Please feel free to download it, abuse it and then tell me how you feel!
The tiles should ideally be on opaque cardstock or laminated and you'll obviously have to cut them up yourself too. I hope the effort will be worth it. For playing pieces I recommend wine bottle corks. Also, please enlarge the board 200% (or reduce the tiles by 50%).
I mentioned elsewhere that I have stripped it back to being quite abstract visually. Two reasons why: 1) I'm much more interested in how the mechanics work (I'll make it look good when I know it works), and 2) No time for artwork yet.
Hope you have fun with it. And thanks.
