Our fourth campaign battle produced a absolute shock result - The iconic De Zeven Provincien captured by the English off Plymouth Hoe. Full unexpurgated version here on the blog: link Some nice shots of the game here:

thanks Bill. A very interesting game when a slower, powerful but isolated ship is harried by two inferior but still powerful opponents with better speed and manouevrability.
I did my damnedest to save DZP but with her supports too far away, it was impossible. |

Great write up of an interesting action now I'm really looking forward to see how my fleet performed. Have a great time at the show tomorrow. |

Thanks Dave. Your adventure is all written up and will appear next. Show was fantastic and I got a little surprise at the end of the day. :) |
