    That is the rule that I have always used myself DB. I have three sets of counters in the bags, and if we do a large game at Doncaster I use the ship logs you can download from the files and we just mark off the damage and then return the chits to the bags.

    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.

    Precisely how I prefer to play, use a laminated paper log and a grease pencil--this also allows for repair, rearm and crew transfer mechanics in longer campaigns, say if you wanted to try to cannibalize a near-wreck or two to get a less-damaged ship back up closer to full strength.
