    Default Some historical scenario snapshots from New Zealand

    Hi Captains

    I have been playing a number of historically-inspired scenarios with my 10- and six-year-old sons recently, using Basic Rules and Enemy in Sight! set-up to keep it simple, not all of which are completed due to changeable attention spans, but which may be picked up again as interest strikes. I've taken a number of photos, which don't count as full AARs, but I thought I'd share for your interest:

    Battle of Vizagapatam, 15 September 1804:

    HMS Centurion [Leopard] receives broadsides from Marengo [Genereux] and Semillante [Courageuse] and delivers one against Marengo in return.

    74-gun Marengo manoeuvres to deliver a devastating stern rake against 50-gun Centurion which forced her to strike, reversing the historical outcome of the battle.

    I will add additional historically-inspired scenarios and photos as time permits. Next will be HMS Guerriere [Sybille] versus USS Constitution, 19 August 1812.
