Battle Report - Armada

 Hello All,

Another battle report, Duncan wanted to play a ship game so we settled on Armada. Decided to use that as an excuse to paint my dwarf fleet so banged that out on Saturday for a Sunday game.

Duncan wanted to try out his super big baseliam battleship, the dictator so ibvioud choice was the hunt the flagship scenario.

the big ship has to sail off to win, but can repair, dwarfs have to sink it. Likely to he tough.

Have to excuse the dwarf bases, I didn't have any more fancy water ones and only cam paint so much in a day!

Deployment, dwarfs ready to hunt.

First few turns really just getting into range. The wind shifted a bit, but nit enough to matter. 1 more shift would be bad fir the baseline however as they would then have to tack 

Few pot shots either bow chasers, but not to much damage. Except firvthe dwarf hunter who took a broadside and immedatly sank. I managed to get a fire on the dictator as well which temporarily stopped repairs.

Next victim is my fire ship, which slips below the waves after another broadside.

Crossing the T! Get my best ship behind the dictator and hammer it pretty good. Sadly their wizard casts a spell on my other good shop preventing him from slowing or turning, so that guy sails out of the game.

Now we have s chase! Sadly with so few ships I can't really keep pace with the repairs.

Get back here!

Finally the dictator is able to sink my battleship and escape, so pretty clear loss for the dwarfs.

All in all a fun game, a but ti simplified maybe especially the critical hits table could be more interesting, but still pretty good.

Thanks;

Mike
