In this scenario, using advanced rules, (which I have not read yet) six American frigates are pitted against five French ships of the line.

The American crews are a notch better than the French.

I must say I find this scenario preposterous.

Who can imagine any resukt other than a French victory? Why woukld anyone imagine that frigates can defeat ships of the line?

It's not as one sided as it seems. The frigates are faster and more maneuverable and with all the caronnades, up close they're like miniature battleships.
