Game being played today - Prince Rupert with Portuguese allies vs Robert Blake with Dutch allies.

Royalist Ships = Constant Reformation (24 damage / 52 heavy guns) and Convertine (12 damage / 46 middling guns)
Portuguese Ships = Santissimo Sacramento (12 damage / 46 middling guns), Nossa Senhora de Conceição do Porto (12 damage / 38 middling guns) and Santa Catarina (12 damage / 26 middling guns)
Total = 72 damage points / 226 guns

Commonwealth Ships = St. George (16 damage / 54 heavy guns) and Leopard (16 damage / 56 middling guns)
Dutch Shops = Wassenaar (16 damage / 60 middling guns), Haarlem (12 damage / 40 middling guns), Zierickzee (12 damage / 30 light guns), Franicker (12 damge / 24 light guns), Bredamme (12 damage / 20 light guns) and Valckenburch (8 damage / 8 light guns)
Total = 98 damage points / 292 guns

The Commonwealth Dutch have a larger fleet but are at anchor on a leeward shore. The Royalists-Portuguese have the wind advantage. It's a variation of the Battle of Southwold Bay.
