Victory
"Never mind the maneuvers, just go straight at them." Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson That was the killer ship back in the day, when an enemy seen that ship coming at you I would advise getting out all your sails and flee. ![]() Hard to select just one ship but I would like to have Nelson walk me about this one and tell me about her as well as his knowledge of changing the way things were done at sea back then. Smart Admiral he was. |
