Kill the beast!

No, not that beast, I'm talking about Ironclads

Last Thursday, I received a friendly challenge from my friend, the Emperor Calamari, to attack his new Imperial flagship, the Right to Rule. This is possibly the biggest ICS vessel ever built, with multiple gun turrets, heavy armor, depth charges and rockets. It requires three people to effectively crew it in a battle. We were delighted to oblige "Blue" with a battle-- mostly Wrath Fleet and Babbage types against the giant ironclad.



The results were very interesting. The Right to Rule is a very hard nut to crack, but it is not unkillable-- with four ships and some air support, the combined fleet of small boys killed the Right to Rule three times in a row, proving the old maxim that you can't defend everywhere at once.
