Remote Black Seas: Lets Roll Playtest 1


Two French Frigates are in hot pursuite of an American merchant. Mark and Chris joined us as the French Captains.  John joind me as the American Comador running both Frigates.  I ran the Merchant as game master.  Mark and Chris hit the Merchant on tunt one with thier bow chasers slowing it down. 
Turn two Mark hit the mizzen mast of the merchant.  Chris' ship was hit by both American ships but John's attempt to board failed to come off. 
The USS Congress hits the French frigate and a fire start.  French sailors act quicly to put out the fire.
The American ships have hurt the French ships Mark's command is particuarly hard hit.  Unforunatly the have shot pas the French and are now further fomr the mercahn that the French are. 
Long range shots ring out... the French hit the boston causing a crew critical... this results in the two US ships coliding the next turn... 
The Boston is hit agian and is now past its break point... Congress is still a fighting ship...
The Merchant ship which made its moral check every turn for the last five turns finaly stikes it colors.  It was a close fought action and lot of fun and hope folks will like it at the Lets Roll covnention

  1. I really thought the game went quite well and I enjoyed it. I had presumed playing on a none grided mat over the internet would be more difficult.
