Hi Gareth,
Just downloaded it and read it! Good to have the final part of The Governor's Prize at long last! I do have a concern, though. With the Savage Tide adventure path in Dungeon magazine and Green Ronin relaunching Freeport in 2007 I can understand why the magazine will be featuring "pirates in D&D" type articles as well as Skull and Bones material. However, I'd like to think that these will be a little more original than the Nautical Fantasy article in this issue. While it was a perfectly good article, it retreads familiar ground covered in products such as Seas of Blood, Broadsides, Seafarer's Handbook and Stormwrack. There is a Sea Witch PrC in Stormwrack too.
Please try and cover new ground with the fantasy articles, and continue to support Skull & Bones (the main reason I buy the magazine) with adventures, encounters and background information on the Golden Age of Piracy.
Cheers & Happy Christmas!
Richard
