June Solo mission "Intercept" Mission Brief

It has been reported to your local Admiral that an enemy VIP is sailing to take up a new appointment close to your home port.
The Admiral has assigned you and your ship to intercept the enemy vessel and "Request" the VIP accept our hospitality.
Therefore you must find and board the enemy vessel and capture it and its VIP.

The enemy vessel is equal to your own in size.
You can engage with cannon fire , but after the enemy ship has suffered 50% of either crew or hull box, any further damage or casualty inflicted by cannon/musket fire draw a E chit, if a crew drawn the VIP is killed and the mission will fail.
The VIP will not be injured in a boarding action.

The enemy ship is north of your current position and must exit the map within a ruler length of the position marked X in the South East corner

Your ship is to the South

The wind is currently blowing from W to E, it can change if you play that option

The play area is equivalent to two mats.

Good luck Captians

:hatsoff:Nice and easy one for June then Chris.:hmmm:
Rob.

Looking forward to this beauty too Chris, cheers.

Looks interesting. Enemy slightly closer to exit I see; using good old Pythagoras that is!

Enemy is bottom left, you are bottom right I believe, you are closer to the exit than he is.

That is so.
Rob.

Nice scenario, I like the straightforward approach.
Seems I'll really have to send my fastest sailing ship this time :steer:

My reason d'etre for this was to get a boarding action in play, hense after 50% hull/ crew damage you could lose if you kill another crew. So lets get those cutlasas and belaying pins and boarding pikes to the fore :)
