Partizan II.

[Bligh]

Well the day went well.
Two tables and for once a good bit of interest in Sails.
Here are some pics from game one.

Frigate action.

The ships leave port.


I get a bit of bother, but look at the 0's


Chris and Simon get real pally.


Whilst I take on the other Rosbief.


Chris and Simon locked in a deathly embrace.


The British Captains confer.


By the time I come to Chris's help he has disappeared beneath the waves, and all I get is a hammering.


Two to one! Time for me to leg it.


The edge of the world seems far away.


Maybe I'll have one more sneaky pop at the English.


That caught you out.



Now it really is time to cut and run.


A win for the Royal Navy.

Game 2.

Chris inducting some more intrepid Captains.



General action.


Close up and personal again.



One of the French Captains looks concerned.


No worries Chris and The enemy are locked in hand to hand.



Meanwhile the other Frigates trade blows.


Chris sinks his British enemy.


The young french Captain now goes for a sail on his own.




Leaving the second British ship to get to grips with Chris and his mauled ship.



It was only ever going one way.


The British win again.


The Victorious surviving British Captain.


Two nil to the Brits.

Game three.

Simon's Pirates vs the Royal Navy.


The approach.




The Black Pearl.


My antagonist, The Queen Anne's Revenge, rakes me with her first Double shotted broadside as I pass.
We both turn in opposite directions.


Meanwhile, the Black Pearl has not even yet reached her opponent.


As we continue to turn I am raked by her other Double shotted Broadside.
They think it's all over?



It is now!


Three cards into the action after first contact with the Revenge.
A broken man, I did not have the heart to watch the outcome of the battle,
but retired with a G&T to comfort me to the other table to shoot down some Germans with my Spitfire.

A win for the Pirates.

cant see the pics :(

Edit, can see them now.

[Comte de Brueys]

I've no problem to see them.

Nice AAR, Rob.

[Bligh]

Thanks Sven.
I wonder why Hugh could not see them though.
Dave had the same problem the other day.
Rob.

[Herkybird]

Now I cannot see them! Obviously I have not done enough penance!!!!

[Bligh]

What mode of viewing are you using Richard?


Zeiss?


Dolland?



I recommend this one in conjunction with the bottle.
Then you will see whatever you want to.



Bligh.

Bligh.

Just a glass of Merlot! - and, damn you Sir! - I can see the pictures no problem too!!!!

[Bligh]

Well I'll be jiggered.
All the way from Northumberland to Nottingham.
That must be some superior objective glass you have there sir.
Maybe you just did not have it focused properly the first time.
Bligh.

[Naharaht]

I cannot see your pictures using either Google Chrome or Firefox, Rob.

[Clipper1701]

They must be just over our horizon at sea . . .

[Bligh]

My techie suggests that it may be a band width problem with your server.
If you are trying to access it during peak times.
Or it could be this hosting server not allotting enough band width.
The now you see it now you don't would suggest that this is the most likely scenario.
Rob.

[Dobbs]

I haven't been able to see them since you posted either. This is not the first time, though. Some folks have posted pictures before, and it came through as just text.

[Bligh]

That would tend to indicate a fault with the host server then.
It may be worth your while dropping the Oberst a PM and seeing if he can work out what is making them drop out.
Rob.

[Comte de Brueys]

I think it has something to to with the individual computer settings.

At home I have no problem to see them.

[Bligh]

It was just the now you see it now you don't that made me think that it may be an external problem Sven.
You may well be correct, but without a lot more detailed info it is hard to do a remote diagnostic for which I am not equipped anyway.
