aaargh!! I believe you done got us right, Matey @Andy MacLeod !!

 

Now where's de Rum!

[HeavyHalfMoonBlade]

Well played everyone. That was unexpectedly tense, lol, and long winded. 

 

Thank you Ithillian for arranging this and congratulations to the Blue Team. 

[Aarenis]

For a bit, I was worried I'd wake up to this thing still going on again 😂

 

Thanks Gudrean for cleaning up the last ship relatively quickly! And thanks Ithi for GMing, especially after ChatGPT went Skynet on us all! Thanks for the fun match and shared suffering, Red Team o7

 

This match will be legendary 😤

[HeavyHalfMoonBlade]

Just thinking, should we ever decide to so this again, one way to speed it up a bit is to have multiple shots - either like simply three at a time, or have one shot for each ship still afloat. That also makes it easier for players to set down firing patterns, etc. Just food for thought. 

[Ithillian Turambar]

That's a good idea.

 

Also to just draw out the grids yourself and manually update the shots.

 

Once I'd got the Grid set up, and a rhythm going, it really wasn't so bad
