A 9 hour slugfest at FOTD!

  • Fort started at 9pm ct
    Battle ended 6am ct
    First Alliance- Two brigs and a sloop
    Second Alliance- Galleon and a sloop
    Hand to Hand advantage- Galleon and Sloop (3 very good pc players vs 1 for first alliance).
    Ship Combat advantage- Two brigs and sloop (Fort defense tactics were impeccable and they owned a 6-2 sink advantage by nights end).
    FOTD''s cashed by nights end:
    Two brigs and sloop 1 and 1/4
    Galleon and sloop 3/4.

    Final play- Galleon and sloop crew sneak attack (tucked while graymorrow was being killed) and steal key then open door!. In the ensuing battle both sloops go down along with one Brig (stronghold barrel). The galleon survives a serious onslaught by the remaining brig forcing the brig to retreat for more ammo (cannonballs). The galleon loads a rowboat and takes some loot (no gems or reapers) towards Ancient Spire then uses the galleon ship as a decoy and sails it West. The surviving brig treks South towards Plunder Outpost then turns North towards Daggers while their partner brig (respawned at Sannes) runs to cover Plunder Outpost! Meanwhile the brig allianced sloop heads towards Ancient and spots the rowboat! The sloop holds his own for a bit and delays the cash in at Ancient as the posse was on its way. The Brig team sinks the incoming galleon and cashes 20% of loot. The galleon team pulls off the 80% heist of the second fort.
    I'm tired...... We're all tired! What a great night and I'd like to thank our opponets for making it so! Two crews that wouldn't accept defeat......
