LM71Blackbird Posted February 2, 2022 It was a long patrol for the Quinnsville Gunboats. When a thick fog started to roll in, the commanders decided that it was time to pull into port. In the fog, the gunboats began to fire the small deck guns aboard to keep track of each other. 1 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr One commander thought he heard an extra shot in the fog (an echo perhaps) and in a panic ordered the large cannon aboard to be fired, striking an innocent merchant vessel! 2 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr After locating the vessel 'Vengeance of the Desert', in the ensuing confusion the gunboats collided with one another. QV Gunboat No.3 was a lost cause, and No.2 was in rough shape. With the innocent merchant ship being in the best shape of them all, they cast a rope and towed into port. The commanders knew they'd be scrubbing the poop deck for this one... 3 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr Once Mayor Richard Brickford got word of what happened, he immediately had the ship taken to the Quinnsville shipyards for a full refit at no charge. He had the crew put up at the local ETWC Inn and paid for the men to have a night of drinking at the Green Dragon Tavern. qv 4.0 by LM71Blackbird, on Flickr By daybreak, after round the clock work, the 'Vengeance of the Desert' was seaworthy once again. After trading what goods were not damaged and filling the hold, Mayor Brickford personally saw them off with bellies full and purses bursting. (300 Dbs for the mistake). ----------------------------------------------- In an effort to keep the peace and as a gesture of good faith, the 'Vengeance of the Desert' is returned to @omnihash_cz and a balance of 300 Dbs is transferred to your account for any inconvenience.

NOD Posted February 2, 2022 That's a good explanation. An innovative idea to build the ships and the nebula like this. 300 Dbs as compensation is generous so that @omnihash_cz can continue to build on Hilto. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Micro is definitely not my strong build style, but I like how it turned out. I figured 300 dbs would be sufficient to get him on his way to build some great stuff.
