Have only painted up 2 ships so the scenario was easy. BE WARNED- I did not even try to rig them!

Enjoy

If there was fog, there wouldn't have been much wind to manoeuvre.

Nice painting, but you have a problem with your flag. If the wind is filling sails, then the flag must always fly in the same direction.

Looking good Joe, thanks for posting. How do you like the Post Captain rules?

Great responses thanks!
BF- you are right. I looked at the weather table and I actually rolled "squalls". Oh well-- still a fun fast engagement.
Jarrovian, of course you are also right sir. I just think the flags look better facing backward.
WJ I like them a lot. I have played everything from WSIM to Kiss Me Hardy. For me these have the right mix of detail and speed of play. I think if you controlled more than 4 ships it would bog down. I have two other posts on these rules on the blog within the last month or so if you want more info.

Thanks again for the comments

Joe
