TENTHCREWMEMBER

Could you please just make it stranger? Stranger. Odder. Could be weirder. More bizarre. How about uncanny?


Okay, after correcting a few hitches in the rules (and dealing with a buggy .pdf conversion!), I think I got this thing as ready as Kaylee in an engine room...

Cargo Bay Ball is a strategy boardgame for 2 to 8 players that recreates the game the crew is playing in the opening scene of the episode "Bushwhacked".

The ideal setup is 2 players, 3 crew on each team mimicking the crew in the episode, however, you may customize any way you like as all 9 crew are included with their own set of stats (yes, even Inara and Simon can engage in this less-than-civilized game!)

Download it for free at

and print it out!

The game is in greyscale (this is my effort for a printer friendly game for everyone at request of some fans), but the rules have some color images to assist with learning them. Consider the game to be in a "noir" or "nostalgic" or "antique" style.

We've found that a 3-on-3 game, once you've got the rules down, takes about 45 minutes to play. It's fast like a freak, and it never goes according to the gorram plan!

I hope you enjoy it as much as we do here on my scrap of nowhere.

I've even got an expansion idea in my head already...
Uncivilized Rules

I'll even be soliciting scenario ideas from those who play the game and get creative with it. I included extra pieces in the game for just such purposes (though you may choose to create some of your own). If a scenario is used in an expansion, scenario designer(s) will be credited!
