Re: [eia] British combat roll for naval battle of London Harbor


Whew !  Lord Nelson ducked under that cannonball in the nick of time !  : )
Anyway, so here's how the battle played out:

Great Britain gained the wind guage.
Great Britain rolled a 1+1 = 2 = 10% of 35 = 4 Danish ships sunk.
The Denmark fleet rolled a 6 = 25% of (13-4) 9 ships = 2 Allied ships sunk.
(This would come out to 1 British and 1 Portuguese.)
The Denmark fleet is defeated and must retreat to Cherbourg, Le Havre,
Antwerp, or Amsterdam, or be retreated one sea area by me.
Great Britain will decide whether either of its fleets pursue after France
decides where the Denmark fleet goes.
Great Britain gains two political points, France loses one PP.
