    Bligh has posted summaries of some historical actions and created a good number of solo scenarios. Raiding and protecting shipping is a good place to start.


    I was thinking of the following for my next get-together:

    HEIC/RN:
    Any East Indiaman using the armed merchant ship stats
    HMS Adamant

    France/French East India Company:
    Carmagnole
    Courageuse

    The French frigates are trying to take the East Indiaman but have to contend with her escort. I don't know wether these particular French ships actually served in the East Indies, but they're what's in my collection. You can rename them if necessary, but the scenario isn't meant to reflect a specific historical event anyway.

    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.
