First game today!

[Killick]

I to had my 1st game last night and real liked it, luckley we had a player who had a good understanding of the rules so it was a great game. A lot of the other players started firing at long range, but I held of till I was close, for me the highlight of the game for me was after a lot of manouvering and luck stern raked a French ship of the line with double shot, does that do some damage. The wind factor was hard to grasp at first (that why I got into two collisions), but at the end of the game I was able to sail of to the repair yard.

Sounds as if you have the makings of a good Captain Alastair. You can always blame the First, or Master for collisions. they should keep you informed about wind changes. Once you have the hang of things, try to post a couple of pictures of the action. The members are always hungry for screenshots.

Thanks for the report.
