Dobbs that was a most enjoyable tale, thank you. Hopefully we will hear more from Captain Ambercrombe and his gallant crew.

Presumably the mortar ketch has a smaller broadside than the luger because of the mortars, so did this make it a very uneven match? Do you have pictures of the two ships cards so we can see what odds Ambercrombe took on?

The ships bases look better than the SOG ones, did you just grind them thinner or is that my imagination. I've been thinking about just using the clear plastic insert instead of the whole base because I don't like the look of the thick lump of plastic on the table. For me it jars to see good looking scenery and models and then detract from it with the bases making it look quite unrealistic.

Taking Robs idea for your next action sounds right up your street. As an alternative you could mortar the fortification, allowing the Brig to enter the bay and engage the Luger if she won't come out and fight against the odds.

Looking forward to reading whatever you come up with.
Cheers
