A Continental Navy Patrol of Admiral Amanda, Commodore Rain and Ensign Shriurra were performing a standard patrol of the Caribbean Seas tonight and intercepted a fleet of pirates consisting of Captains Allie Nayl, Beekeeper and Mosaii.
There was a fierce battle. At one point (round 1) it was the Commodore alone against the Captain Beekeeper. It was an epic confrontation that ended with Commodore Rain victorious. Our staff sketch artist sent a series of sketches of their duel. The battle (round 2) ended with Commodore Rain sinking Captain Mosaii. The standings now are Navy 10, Pirates 2, and 1 draw. Sketches after the break.

Two awesome rounds were fought with medium ships and with little to no SL issues.
The first round ended with Mosaii and Abi squaring off one on one. It was close with Mosaii winning with an incapped ship. Most of tonight's sketches are of this final showdown between Mosaii and Abi. The second round was almost as close. Beekeeper and Amanda were the last two ships. Amanda maneuvered around Beekeeper and managed to sink him before he got her. Wins for the Year List. Sketches after the break.

The Scarlet (Red for you pirates) Team was made up of Allie, Amanda, and Mosaii.
The cannon balls were flying fast and furious as the fast little ships flew around the seas. Azure pulled out the victory in round 1 but Scarlet came back in round 2 with a little help from Second Life and managed a win. Sketches after the break. |
