These are still not entirely realistic, but after a play-test with a 3rd rate, I had to tweak them favorably (beating to weather was painful - in this format a 1st rate now goes to weather like a 3rd rate in my original version).

The listed SGN 107 card is for my bomb ketch, not regular sloops of war.

Yet to come are bases for schooners, brigantines, sloops of war, Constitution, Victory, and SGN 109 and 110.
I just realized that this is not the file I thought it was. I will try to upload the correct file when I am next at my computer.
