    Default Battle of glory

    Hi guys....
    The first battle with advange rules are now in the bag.
    Tordenskjold and I play this thusday. And it was a blast with the new rules in play.

    Scenario: enemy in sight
    Point value: 220 pts.
    British:
    HMS Defence
    HMS Sybille
    220 pts.

    Frence:
    Aquilon
    Courageuse
    218 pts



    Deployment is like so. We deployed the ship first and then we draw the wind.
    And tyhe wind was in my favour.



    The the first couple of moves. I quickly cover over half of the board.

    And it was here i fire my fist shoot on aquilon.
    Aquilon took 3 A Damage. 1st Damage did 4 with a leak, 2nd did 2 with a leak and 3rd 0 damage.


    The next turn, Aquilon and Defence sailed in the each ohter. and for the next couple of turns we where stuck together.
    Well Aquilon would have shot on Defence but loaded up the wrong side. And then shot at my Sybille insted. Then i make a mistake. I took the damage from Sybille and give it to Defence insted.
    And Defence did get to shoot at Aquilon, and there where a musket fight after.




    We where stuck for 3 or 4 turns where I used actions on defence there shout have being on Sybille insted. in this turns i broke my roter and i caugt fire and took in water.
    Morten had i broke mast, caugt fire and also took in water.
    Mortens crew did not work fast enough to take out the water and his aquilon did go to the buttom of the sea.
    Now we should not forget Mortens little ship Courageuse, I did some damage too to my Defence. And my Sybille sailed out of the map. I forgot to take down the sails, and a small corner was out of the map.






    The Defence and Courageuse sailed a round the map to repair and fix what was broken. And we did get to shoot and Mortens little ship Took only 1 A damage and i got to take 3 A Damage and was so lucky. I did not take any damage, i pulled out 3 0 damage.




    Then we had to stop because the shop was closing. And called it a draw.
    Here is my HMS Defence

    And Morten was to qucik for me and had pulled allmost all of his tokens

    Next time we are playing, The Royal George will take on Montagne. I just gor it today :D


    Morten would you plz but in your pics too?
