This change requires that cards reinforce a specific War Galley to gain the same automatic initiative, which gives Free Peoples a chance to take it out. To compensate, the total number of tokens has been reduced from 6 to 4, which is 2 activations of one of the various double-reinforce effects (such as on {{Card|Castamir of Umbar}}). The twilight effect has also been limited to the Galley itself, rather than providing an easy deluge of twilight to halt stops.

|ReleaseNotes=One of the missteps by the PC has been our bungling of the Corsair errata, which centered around addressing 3 cards: Castamir, Corsair Marauder, and Corsair War Galley. Each of these cards have since gone through a second round of errata: Castamir lost fierce instead of nerfing enduring, Marauder was reworked to more fairly address the core of why he was frustrating, and now to complete the hat trick we return to Corsair War Galley.
The Galley was originally nerfed for two reasons: first, Corsairs were just crazy. But second, it also was a part of the powerful Moria Navy archetype, and this (and the nerf to Marauder) was viewed as a two-birds-one-stone situation.
However, the results have not been what we wanted. Corsairs were sunk and dead, never to rise above the waves again. We are thus entirely reverting the alteration to the War Galley’s game text, and instead restricting it to be unique. With this more gentle touch, we hope that this will permit the Corsairs to sail the high seas once more (if a little humbler).
As for Moria Navy, well, it was brought to our attention that the real lynchpin wasn’t the initiative-enabling Galley, but instead:
