----Intro post shall arrive later----

[Sir Noret]

Karl mutters something about needing a black bottom as he takes the flag and goes to his ship to prep it and the crew.

[SGOS]

"That would be me" rau says both taking the flag from Dmitri and the money from Ladd which he got from the deli after some 'extra-special meat-delivery's' were made

"Can I have your name before we part, just to know who's got my life and my ship in their hands?" he says turning back and releasing a fume of smoke.

[Link the hero of time]

malara: how many guns does she have? im not used to seeing a trading vessel outfit for combat.

[SGOS]

"56 iron messengers of death each handing out scrolls of lead." Maiza says pushing his glasses up

"But her real golden feature is the crew..." says Rau exhaling a ring of smoke.

[Roach]

Roach boarded his ship shouting orders to at his crew to make ready for departure he stepped up to to the helm.

"Raise the anchor men lets get out to open water! Raise the colors and unfurl the sails!"

The crew pulled up the lines and unfurled the sails and the ship made its way out of the harbor and into the open sea.

[SGOS]

Poseidon's chariot readies herself and sails are all down. She starts her jounrney to the left of the Neptune's Fire. Heading to the enemy base.

[Link the hero of time]

malara looks at the ship intently, not a bad ship keep her in good shape, she turns and heads to "dreams of desolation"

malara: allright you swabs, lets get this [censored] moving! she slowly lumbers out of harbor gaining speed

[Sir Noret]

Luftstromen der Reichtum

As the Sun slowly began to set, the masts of the Luftstromen der Reichtum unfurled and cast a shadow upon the waters of the Black Sea. Slowly at first she pulled out of her moorings, but then caught her name sake and pulled out to sea. "Men we sail for Crimea to slaughter the enemies of God, those ghastly Turks who seek to disrupt the operations of our glorious ally Russia. Set forth with God Speed!" Karl spake.

[Roach]

The four set out for the Crimea their banner caught high in the wind along with their sails. Roach confirmation his course and turned the helm over to his first mate. Roach stood atop the deck and roared for the attention of his men they all turned to face their captain.

"Men never have i lied to you never will i start. This mission is dangerous some of you may not survive but know that you are giving you lives in service to your country. These Heathen Turks and vile Corsairs fear the sight of the Cossacks! We once inflicted fear in their cowardly hearts we shall do so again! Now you savage devils make ready and for every one of ye, that falls take three Turks with ye!!!!!

The crew crew bellowed "URA!" and scrambled to their stations

[Link the hero of time]

the dreams of desolation loads all its cannons as it speeds on towards the rear of the formation catching up to the other ships quite quickly.

malara orders a salvo fired off.

the sound reverberates across the sea

[SGOS]

Rau steps out of his cabin and everyone salutes, he exhales a puff of smoke then spits on the deck, he goes back into his cabin. The crew know what they must do.

[Roach]

Day turned to night and the coast of the Crimea became visible on the horizon. A flotilla of Ottoman and Corsair ships sat in a natural harbor a collection of a fourth rate captured from the Black Sea Fleet and several Xbec's and a few brigs surrounded their prize and flag ship.

"We need a plan signal the others to meet in my quarters."

[Link the hero of time]

malara arrives aboard the ship

Malara: aint that a [censored]....

[SGOS]

Using a rope Rau swing over to Neptune's fury, then slides down the rope
"I heard you needed me?" he says brushing himself off

[Sir Noret]

Luftstromen der Reichtum

Karl and a rowman disembarked from the Luftstromen der Reichtum upon a small rowboat and crossed the space between it and Neptune's Fury. The rowman stays aboard the small craft while craft boards the Neptune's Fury to meet with the other captains, upon reaching Captain Roach's quarters he says bluntly "There are more of them then there are of us."

[Link the hero of time]

malara: those are fourth rates...

[Roach]

Luftstromen der Reichtum

Karl and a rowman disembarked from the Luftstromen der Reichtum upon a small rowboat and crossed the space between it and Neptune's Fury. The rowman stays aboard the small craft while craft boards the Neptune's Fury to meet with the other captains, upon reaching Captain Roach's quarters he says bluntly "There are more of them then there are of us."

"Aye quite a few more if they get out into open waters they will kill us we need to keep them in the port. Malara I need you to act as my artillery use your long range guns to pepper them, keep the confused. Karl and I will make our way directly into the harbor I will Board and recapture the Fourth rate. Rau split yer crew up and seize their gun emplacements along the harbor here, Here, and here. Your ship will block the harbor with Malara and provide support. Turn their own batteries against them. Before we strike i will have some of my men slip into the harbor and plant some powder charges to destroy as many of their ships as possible. Questions or Concerns?

[Sir Noret]

"So I am to keep them off of you while you take the fourth rate?" Karl queries.

[Roach]

"So I am to keep them off of you while you take the fourth rate?" Karl queries.

That's the general plan you will be able to maneuver far better than i In that mess.

[Link the hero of time]

malara: that 4th rate is gonna chew me up if it gets into range, see that you dont fail... we need to keep wind and keel them stuck there, if they take the wind from us we wont be able to run or manuver....

[Roach]

malara: that 4th rate is gonna chew me up if it gets into range, see that you dont fail... we need to keep wind and keel them stuck there, if they take the wind from us we wont be able to run or maneuver....

"leave that to me this port is a death trap only on exit its like a bowl and if Rau gets their ring of shore guns turned back on them there will be such a cross fire they wont know witch way is up."

[Sir Noret]

"If that be your command, it shall be done, is that all?"

[Roach]

"If that be your command, it shall be done, is that all?"

"If there are no further questions lets move into position once the rowers have detonated their charges we will begin the attack."

[SGOS]

"So i be acting as as wall, and firin yonder as many cannons as possible?, and blocking thee and splitting yee crew to raid them?" Rau says while looking at the here here and here he pointed on the map.

[Sir Noret]

'Very well then, I await the signal. Good luck and God Speed to all of you," Karl said as he left to return to the Luftstromen der Reichtum.
