Buccaneer*

Each player starts with five chips. To take a ship card, players must have a stack of chips, with the minimum required for each ship indicated on the card. A unique twist allows players to add their chip or stack to an opponent's, gaining ownership of the entire stack, but it can only be used in the following turn, potentially leaving it vulnerable to being taken. The scoring system has been expanded, introducing new tokens and a consolation prize for the player with the highest stack, adding more strategic depth to the gameplay.
