    As she passes Orient it finally sinks and she takes on survivors.

    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.

    With his second side opening volley Captain Patch does the double and this ship is set on fire in two places.

    Meanwhile, captain Calypso battles on for the British and comes under fire from both the French Fleet and a battery on the headland.

    Forced out of the battle she takes sanctuary in a bay on the other side of the estuary.
    She has however so badly damaged the remaining French ship that it withdraws from the battle.
    A resounding win for the British.

    Game two will follow shortly.

    The Second Game.

    The second game got underway with a new set of captains. Here we see the English surveying the table.

    The battle consisted of a major smash and board game as all the ships met in the centre of the mat.
