Reclaiming a queen

So I had this idea during a game a few months ago and I want to hear your opinions...Due to my inexperience at the time I moved my queen and someone hunted her with a helmsman so i was eliminated..At the same time though I had a pirate targeting my captured queen...My thought is what if that pirate could reclaim the queen ?...I know that reclaiming queens would make eliminating someone more difficult but maybe it could work in certain situations...

I can't tell you how many times I've wished that were possible :P

I dunno, the pirate is already so powerful... I don't think it needs that added ability. As much as I hate to say it, I think the strict eliminations are good for the game.

Are you suggesting that a queen is captured, the player is then inactive while the pirate is en route and once the pirate catches the captured queen, the player is then active again?

Seems like a pretty unique situation. Couldn't a player/ally then just gift you a princess after you died to revive you?

It's an interesting idea but I do like the permanence of eliminations.

Yes I was just mentioning situations like this where the action is already timed...You wouldnt be able to be revived by a gift princess...I also prefer permanent eliminations...I just wanted to see what other guys have to say about it :P
