Bah, your massive impressive squadron and land force doesn't frighten the
Brickley's Cove Squadron of His Majesty's Royal Navy.

We're in the *North* Atlantic : )

Excellent work there, Don! Have they an established port yet?

Continue to bicker among yourselves, but stay out of my waters.  My fleet is
well armed and well manned to destroy both at will.  Do not attempt to
attack or take our merchant ships.

The above is an introduction to pix of my Spanish Armada fleet.  Please take
the above in the humor it is meant to be.  One day when I can get the
bricks, I will build a Spanish port.  Until then, my fleet is just
patrolling.  The ships are outfitted with the guns and crews rated according
to Evil Steve’s Pirate rules, and what ‘Spanish’ troops I have left to make
up my Port Garrison of 46.  I hope you enjoy the pix and look forward to any
comments.
