Today with Witosław we had game on higher points – 2,000 points per player. I used fleet of two Borodino class battleships, three cruisers – Varyag, Pallada class – Aurora, Novik and one group of torpedo boats. On the other side were Mikasa, three cruisers and three fleets of torpedo boats. We spend good time playing on „Wieczór weteranów” (in en – veteran evening) – day when Bolter is opened longer and all different games are played, today also painting evening was organised.

Somewhere in Pacific Ocean the story begun.

Russian Baltic fleet.
Japanese Imperial Navy.
Both sides after turn one.
Turn two, faster vessels get in contact, one group of Japanese torpedo boats were sunk by Novik and Varyag.
One of the torpedos scored hit on Varyag.
Another group of torpedo boats was sunk.
Heavily damaged Varyag rammed last group of Japanese torpedo boats.
Both sides had to sail into opposite corner of the table.
Novik turned left to achieve that.
Mikasa scored critical hit nad Varyag sunk in a moments.
Whole Russian fleet started turning.
Japanese did the same. Mikasa was hit several times by Borodino main guns, losed rudder…
but her crew managed to repair it.
Moment when Aurora also losed control, as her rudder was damaged…
… and started circling around island…
Going around and around to the end.

Summary:
– good game which resulted as Draw – I had 50 points to Witosławs 54.
– we agreed to play revenge game in next two weeks.

Nothing related to navy, rediscovered this great song.
