Next Battle:

Doing a mini fleet battle next week Saturday 8th September at 8:00pm GMT – same time as usual. The basis of that battle is that any team can have up to 5 ships competing (rather than 1 per team). Its just for some fun, and will be a little more chaotic 🙂

More info will follow shortly, gunpowder and projectiles will be provided. Ships used for this battle can be used again, but please bring any additional ships you want to use. Ty

Points:

1st place Scuabtuinne and Shrek’s Hand get 30 points, 3rd place Berlusconi get 10. Full points table is in group description above.

These points will be handed out to the ships, not the crews. So if you want your ship to get lots of points, be sure to use it again or modify it. You may re-name your ship, but I encourage you to stick with a name to avoid confusion.
