About this expansion

Fleet: Salvage Yard Licenses is a 2012 card-based game addition for 2–4 players, introducing a new way to generate cash through a set of four license cards.

Salvage Yard integrates directly into the license deck. Once available, it gives players the option to salvage a boat card from their hand and receive its cash value in new boat cards.

This ability offers a powerful way to generate cash, but it is not a decision to make automatically. Salvaging comes with an important cost: it counts as a launch. Players must therefore weigh the benefit of converting a card in hand against the impact that launch has on their plans.

  • Four license cards: Salvage Yard is supplied as a set of four license cards.
  • Hand-card conversion: Salvage a boat card from your hand for its cash value in new boat cards.
  • Meaningful timing: The salvage ability is powerful, but must be used wisely.
  • Launch consequence: Using Salvage Yard counts as a launch.

Salvage Yard adds a focused tactical choice to Fleet’s license deck. It can help turn a boat card into fresh value, giving players another route to cash when the opportunity is right.

Because the action counts as a launch, the license rewards careful judgment rather than routine use. Fleet: Salvage Yard Licenses is designed for players who want a strong cash-generating option with a clear strategic consequence.
