An enjoyable read Dobbs, I didn't realise how much I missed Sails until I read Shadow Dragons report yesterday and now this.

From what little I know it was a bit like putting a Lightweight boxer in a ring with a Welterweight, calling them both Lightweights and trying to take some lessons as to why the heavier man won. It's pretty obvious that the American Frigates were punching way over the class of the British frigates of the times.

Excelent game though and the Hornet was skillfully handled.
