I guess we don't really have a category name for them like we do for Navy or EITC, but by ghost ship I did mean Phantoms, Revenants, Storm Reapers, and Black Harbingers.

So far, I've not encountered cursed crew aboard Navy or EITC ships. One of the things that initially drove me to solo board ships was the desire to find a cursed crew; I've started to think I misunderstood and Disney just meant that there were ghost ships sailing alongside living ships.

Kani, I'm glad to hear you got the boarding option back. I'd be gutted if I couldn't board ships; since mid-21 Notoriety, I've actually been mostly land-based trying to catch up my other weapons (upper-26 now), so I go boarding just to break up the monotony.

I put off trying War Sloops for a long while too, mostly out of the uncertainty of what I'd find aboard. I suppose that hesitation really was silly, since I've gotten myself killed several times after I had an idea of what to expect anyway. That was one of the reasons I wanted to start this thread though; I know there are a lot of other solo sailors, but I wasn't sure how many were even trying to board any flagships at all. I enjoy it so much that I also wanted to share what I was finding on the other ships, so that people who might have been curious would have enough of an idea about what to expect to try it for themselves.
