    That is good news John. I may be able to help you out with a couple of 74s if you would like them.

    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.

    Thanks Rob that's a very kind offer but I've put a moratorium on buying any more ships until I've used all the ones I have bought over the last 2 years.

    The fleets have grown apace, there are now 2 1st rates, 2 74's 2 62's, 2 50's 4 frigates and 1 sloop in both the French and British Fleets plus Constitution. So 27 ships so far and I think I've only played about 14 games.

    I was sorely tempted by the Zatu sale to start a Spanish Fleet and add a 74 to the British and French Fleets and I would like the Bonhomme Richard, the list goes on and on, but that way madness lies.

    In the last 2 weeks I've played 4 of the 2015 scenarios, one game required 8 ships and I had to take the cellophane off 4 of them which sort of shows how little used they have been.
    Sailing is on hold for a little while as I'm on decorating but I hope to complete the AARs on the games recently played.
    Thanks again.

    I quite understand John, but they are there if you want them any time.
