Good lord.
Warning to all British ships: stay out of the South Pacific unless well
protected... : )
Excellent work, really. A standard set for us all, I should think. Her lines
very much remind me of a French frigate -- very smooth indeed. Altogether,
Misérable is a menace. She much be extrodinarily quick and those guns are...
menacing.
Hmm... cutters could outrun her... but what about gun power...
*brain trying to figure out where one can find more masts and get a-building
: )*
Hegemony in the South Pacific must feel *good*! And well deserved indeed –
brilliant stuff, as ususal!
