New scenario, not from the rulebook.. I just invented it, so we are free to balance it as we wish

US Fleet:
6 Frigates, 4x44 gun, 2x36 gun
  • Fast and agile
  • Pack quite a punch up close (4 guns + 4 carr, cracks!)

    French Fleet:
    5 2ndSOL, 74 guns (all 10/10 guns except one 8/8, everybody with 1/1 carr)
  • Position advantage (upwind)
  • More crew
  • More hull
  • Slightly more firepower at long range (better rakes especially)

    I think this scenario will be even more fun with Advanced Rules (those frigates reach 7 speed vs 5 SOL speed).

    Have fun



  • Giving the French the weather gauge negates any speed or maneuver advantage for the U.S. fleet. I suspect by the time the frigates can approach carronade range, they won't have many left.
