A British 1st Rate leaves the boatyard. It's nice to add a big bit of oak to the fleet, so there's also a picture of the Royal Navy as they stand. #spreadthelard #thefullnelson #wargaming

Trying out #theFullNelson with a little tussle between a British and French brig. It was all going the HMS Tiny's way until a few well placed broadsides from Le Gras made them strike their colours. #spreadthelard #wargaming

Back on the #GreatLakes in 1813, with the Continental Navy trying to capture a group of Canadian bateux carrying supplies to Kingston. But the weather is unsettled. How will the American schooners fare? #SpreadTheLard #TheFullNelson

Major defeat for the French, the baguette was not so glorious after all, lost all its sailing dice and stroke its colors. Le Fromage Invincible could not put a dent in Her Majesty’s fleet and the Brits used Westminster Abbey to end the game.
