Enemy Squadron Intercepts the Fleet
The lookout's warning comes too late for comfort. Warships are bearing down to windward under full sail, riding deep with guns and men and flying colors hostile to Country. These are ships of the line, fast enough to run down the slowest vessel in the fleet before nightfall.
The wind stands against any attempt to run, and the holds carry a full year of the Crown's Silver. Target Leader must choose whether to fight, to scatter, or to come to terms with losing everything.
