    I've often toyed with the idea of making ship's biscuits for snacks while playing SoG, so I did some research online.

    Think of the potential! An afternoon of blowing up friends while chewing on beef jerky and hard tack and drinking beer (or rum if you like).

    We could even add regional differences in the types of weevil available.
    Anyone for Ratatouille.

    Easy French Rat a two ee!

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    Of course Dave, and for those of you on a diet it would be the lesser of two weevils.
