(RolePlay) game Combat mission 6th rate against 3 pirate ships

[blubasso]

Hey folks!

I need Grog. Rum. Whisky. Wine. All possibly strong. Very.

I barely escaped from 3 Pirates.

Three. Damn. Pirate. Ships!

And damn the Admiralitiy at Carlisle that gave me the mission and didn‘t tell me about three ships. I only wanted to help Great Britain, keeping out pirates from our border. And what the Royal Navy do? Gave me a mission that i cannot accomplish. And now i have to go in Admirality to admit my failure. Those filthy clay brained. Those scurvy bilge rats!

Look, look at my hand: it was iron, now it tremble like a porridge during a volcano eruption. 

Never. Never ever belive the Navy. 

Barman, another something, but i want it stronger!

(Out of Character)

I took a combat mission for the 6th rate ships and I went there with my brand new Snow. Three pirate ships waited for me, there. Nothing i couldn't really handle, if I play wise, taking them one at the time.

I put my ship with the wind at 140 degrees and I waited the enemy placing in single file, more or less. Then I charged my stern cannons with chains, shooting to the enemy sails. 

At this point, my wife went and asked for this and that...

 

I put at max velocity my ship and I did what she wanted. When I returned, the Pirates were gone and all I could do was hit ESC. My plan was shooting with my rear cannons until all three ships were at max 40% sails, staying at a range of 4-500 meters, than turn in circle and shoot at hulls, but one at a time because the AI gunnery is very very sharp and be shot with 30+ cannons at a time could ruin your plans for the day...  Nothing happen due my wife and her requests.

That's why no women are allowed on ships. They bring bad luck, as you have experienced.
