Useful onomatopoeia

[martin goddard]

Ignore the title, just think what makes the sound we want.
What words can we come up with that sound like the real thing for the new POE rules?

They do need to be "sayable".

Here are some initial ideas.
A ship coming into contact for boarding. Raaashkaaall, uurk.
Broadside. Boof, boof,boof, boof..    Followed by Katak,katak,ffffut, ffffffffffut, katak, fwoop, fwoooooooop

This might of course make the games very noisy, but so realistic as to make the player become totally carried away?

You know you want to!

Sound effects are often expressed but difficult to spell. It is hard for someone to reproduce another's sound effect from a spelling in other words I think a recording would be better if you want to go down that path.
But! Do we do this for any other game? Will it be considered childish by our somewhat austere group of mature gamers who after all by your decree are not allowed to think of games as fun.😊
Personally I find I do make sound effects but absentmindedly so, I am not sure if I was forced to do so I would be as keen to play the game?

Boom! (Broadside. Emphasis on the !)
Fiss-hoom. (Bow chasers.)
Fizz-hoooom. (Stern chasers. You have to consider red shift of the sound wave.)
Erk, Erk, eeek. (Masts creeping in the wind.)

Hello Duncan

This is intended as an amusing diversion, nothing more.
