Hope that you all had a great day out. I hope that you did not lose your tables to any usurpers.
The weather is not quite tropical a bit more wind than expected.

Very enjoyable day, only 4 of us, Mike, Rob, Martin and Stewart.
2 land raids, one win for attack, one win for defender
3 sea fights 2 defender win, 1 attacker win
Well looked after by the Entoyment staff

Our pirate day on Saturday 10th August.
I really enjoyed the day.
I have a bunch of photos which I will put on the internet and give a link ASAP.

We payed land raids and sea fights.
Took a while to remember all the sea fight rules.

Three sea fight games. Two were close and a third was a 52 V 9 point outcome. Ouch! All the merchants got off table whilst Stewart took on 4 small warships.
My windy D6 rolls were exceptional. 2D6 2 successes, 1 D6 1 success etc....

Two land raid games. These used the new PP buildings. The table looked fantastic. Very enjoyable.
indeed.

Although biased I feel that these two games are superb, in terms of clarity, fidelity and enjoyment at Entoyment.

Anyway, photos to come.

Gad you all had such a great time yesterday. And I agree about the rules - very straightforward and (too often forgotten as a success criterion, I feel) - fun!

Sorry I wasnt there. An injury to my left leg during the past week or so, was very painful and playing up. So I spent half the day with Doctors and Aand E, lovely!!!
Also some urgent family problem came up, which needed my intervention, still on going but ha ho.
So I couldn't attend
I am glad the day went ok. I will get to sail the " Wicked Wench" yet !!!
Miles.
