Notable Actions
'''13th. February 1722''' Baronet Blatchford and Captain Shaun Jervis got attacked with their Mercy Frigates HMS Hurricane and HMS Indomitable by three spanish ships lead by Captain Ice Hola near St. John, HMS Dolphin spotted the fight from the distance and joined the fight to cover their retreat. Upon my arrival Captain Blatchfords Mercy was already in boarding combat with one spaniard, while Captain Jervis got chased by a Khan Flute. By firing Bar Shot and using "dominate" and "entangle rigging" on the Khan Flute I was able to slow it down long enough to allow Captain Jervis to gain distance and finally escape the fight. The spanish Archelon Frigate tried meanwhile to take me down but I was able to outmanoeuver it while sailing upwind so that the spaniards gave up the chase after some minutes. Only Baronet Blatchford´s HMS Hurricane got captured in boarding combat.
