Traveled to Wicked Gaming in Peterborough NH for a game day set up by my friend Arofan. I ran the Battle of Sandy Hook again since I had it ready to go. Frank handled the British and David and Bill commanded the American Navy.
HMS Shannon lead three English Frigates north against President and Congress While Africa moved against United States and Essex
HMS Aeolus faced Hornet and Argus she took two heavy blows but...
Then crossed Hornets T and smashed here in turn..
One broadside took down the poor Hornet.
Shannon and Guerrier exchange blows with President and Congress then Guerrier moved beteween the two ships hamming Congress but then the brave crew boarded the English ship starting a battle that would last almost 3 turns. Congress was eventually over overwhelmed then Shannon Crossed Presidents T and she (President) caught fire setting off a chain-reaction resulting in fires on Shannon, President, Congress and Guerrier. (Congress burned to the waterline)
Mean while Africa and United State were hammering each other until African crossed United states T and forced it to strike.
The English won a clear victory sinking Congress and Hornet and probably capturing President and United States. Essex and Argus would have gotten away into the Atlantic though Aeolus might have been able to dog their steps. The most of the English ships are damages though Belvedere is unharmed and could have placed New York under blockade.
