    Default Algerine and Barbary coast ships.

    I just realized today as I added the action chits to my Algerine Navy, that I had one chit to remove as inappropriate.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    Maybe you could replace it with a coffee mug?

    I am thinking slave shackles should be in there. Didn't they used sell their victims off into slavery?

    They did use slaves to row the galleys Gary, and also sold them. A lot of raids took place along the shores of Spain and Italy for slaves. They even got as far as the Devon and Cornwall peninsular on several occasions.
