====Loot Filled Ghostships Threaten the Kingdom====

==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 1 ====
−
The cooler weather and spooky season has brought with it the return of ghostships sailing above the Kingdom! This year, however, the fleet is led by a scoundrel known as Admiral Arrrgh.
+
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
−
The ethereal ships cannot be harmed by conventional means. In order to inflict enough damage to ground the ship and loot its hold for treasure, you'll need to first visit one of several haunted locations throughout the Kingdom to collect Ghastly Galleon Gouda which will in turn attract Halloween mice that drop Ethereal Cannonballs to fire at the ships!
+
==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 2 ====
 +
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
−
There are ghostships flying above several regions in the Kingdom. Once you have your hands on some cannonballs, you can fire them from your Camp to inflict damage on the ghostships equal to the point value of the mice you capture. Do enough damage to bring down the ship and loot its hold!

With the appearance of Admiral Arrrgh has also come a new high-powered type of cannonball. Collect Ghostfire Cannonballs by hunting either Admiral Arrrgh or Captain Cannonball using Lockbox Limburger Cheese, which you'll find when looting any ghostship.

Arm your cannon with Ghostfire Cannonballs to inflict DOUBLE damage against any ghostship! These cannonballs can be a bit scarce, so make each shot count by capturing high-point value mice!

Shooting down a ghostship will have it crash into the ground, allowing you to loot its cargo hold for valuable treasure! You'll find different treasure in each ghostship depending on which region the ship is located in.

Throughout the event you'll also find familiar Spooky Charms. However, their stats and effect have been altered by the arrival of Admiral Arrrgh.

With a little ghostly luck, you may even find Ultimate Spooky Charms with an impressive +20 Luck!
