Blood & Plunder battle at sea ...

 A sudden opportunity to get in a pirates game happened for me and my eldest son.

We jumped in with a fast pair of sloops fully crewed at a 200 point level.

the green sloop was under Alex's command
the black one under my command

Alex got off the first salvo of cannon
and managed to start a fire on my ship

I got the fire out quickly and manned the guns of my ship ...

I scored many hits with one critical
that when 'checked' I rolled again the '10'
a devastating explosion rocked through
the green sloop and killed all aboard

The excitement now over, we simply re-set the critical as a fire and continued the game.

we traded a few more cannon and
swivel gun volleys
crews became fatigued

an event for my pirates, an extra command point

which I used to great effect to have the crews
re-load cannon

strike points collected on the green sloop
crewed by Spanish forces, that simply
withdrew as they had taken too many
losses

Great chance to get the sloops out again on the tabletop and get in a game with my son.
