An interesting situation.

[Bligh]

From this afternoon's game.
Sealegs will write up the full action later.


Eveille has struck to HMS Argonaut.

Argonaut after some altercation with Artesien strikes to her.


HMS Leopard now silences Artesien at long range. Abandoning ship what is left of Artesien's crew attempt to escape with the captured Argonaut, only to be boarded in turn by Leopard's crew who outnumber them 7 to one.




Thus the little Leopard ends up with three prizes, one of them British.
It was a damned close run thing.
If Argonaut had not done a runner, Leopard would have run aground in the next move.
