    Was it not wave three and four we noticed the models were, shall we say, undersized, and I think that over shadowed any discussion over the decks.
    Plus the initial Spanish stats seemed to be over powerful

    Not "seemed," Ares deliberately CHOSE to overpower them for some reason beyond my ken. :( And IMO did a great disservice to the memory of the men who crewed those ship in doing so, in that presenting ships above historical capability and noting their wholesale historical loss would make one wonder if said crews truly were fighting what they had to the best of their ability.

    Men fought and DIED on these ships, and we owe them the respect of telling their stories right as best we can.

    Totally agree DB.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
