Three games played on Saturday by myself, Gary, aka McDorf, and his two friends Kirstie and David. I based the action on the League of armed neutrality in the Baltic.
The action takes place in the gut just off the Danish coast. The Danish forts guarding the passage will fire on any actively battling warship whichever belligerent invests its waters. ALL protagonists are therefore warned to keep out of range of the Danish coast.
The British Baltic squadron are expecting a French incursion through the Gut and have dispatched two frigates to patrol the area.
Game one.
HMS Orpheus is unlucky enough to come upon two more powerful French Frigates off Helsinger castle.
The French Captains move in.
35506
A flanking attempt fails when the double shot from Hermione falls short.
35507
Orpheus comes about and exchanges fire with L'Inconstante, The British double shot against the French more conservative single load doing much damage.
35508
L'Inconstante catches fire and retires from the action.
35509
However, the move against L'Inconstante brings Orpheus under the guns of Hermione.
35510
Crippled by the Opening broadside and with little she could deliver in answer Orpheus is forced to strike to the French.
35511
Game one went to the French Captains Gary and Kirste.
Tomorrow games two and three.
Bligh.
