Capt.JohnPaul Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) Hopefully this will be fair, you have a much stronger ship up against two weak ones, but you have lots of cannons... if you would like me to remove a ship I will. Let's get this battle started! URGENT EDIT: My broadside is wrong, fixing and re-uploading now. Edited June 22, 2011 by Capt.JohnPaul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tazmaniac Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) We'll let Horry make that call, though with two ships you could flank me more easily. Maybe your move/attack phase should be split between your fleet, but again we'll let the "game master" make that call. Edit My Do. is now fixed to Gun stats were wrong .

So many edits.. if you have 7 gun broad side... 7 x 24 is 168, not 200 or something you put... How did you get that? My ships are dead in 2 hits then!

Tazmaniac Posted June 22, 2011 (edited) AAH! So many edits That's why we Beta Test. .. if you have 7 gun broad side... 7 x 24 is 168, not 200 or something you put... How did you get that? My ships are dead in 2 hits then! 24 pounders deliever 35 points of damage each. But I'd need to connect with every cannon on my broadside to get the max damage. My 9 pounders should be 14 not 18 damage, but Horry told me 18 though he was probably half asleep at the time. (Theatre can kill the brain when you have a show comming up) You might want to check the rules again. Edited June 23, 2011 by Whiz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(Theatre can kill the brain when you have a show comming up) You might want to check the rules again. Oh yes, that's a great example of me bein' sloppy. You are right, it should be 14 damage. And Capt.JohnPaul, your broadside actually is 140 strong (4x35) and addtionally just add the 2 nine pounders per broadside So, all clarity removed?
