  1. Here’s a new fleet for you lads. I’ve been brewing quite a lot of them, so I’ll be posting more as time goes on. The following fleet is English, focusing on destroying opposing ships rather than gold running. Of course, it can gold run decently, but that’s not the point of any English fleet, right?

 

Her Majesty’s Privateers

HMS Grand Temple: 25 pts

Blackheart + Helmsman + Oarsman + Cannoneer

HMS Oxford: 20 pts

Captain + Helsman + Sir Christopher Myngs + Administrator Scott Bradley + Commodore Rhys Gryffyn Owen

Aberdeen Baron: 14 pts

Helmsman

Treachery: 5 pts

Divers: 1 pt

Ramsgate 

Total: 65

Let me know what you guys think about this. I meant this fleet to be overbearingly strong and deadly, with even the primary gold runner being hard to kill at 5 masts. The double actions Myngs and Blackheart provide will give me an edge, and the Ramsgate can be placed strategically to deny gold runners or hamstring any surviving gunship.
