Darkstar Battle Report
The First Turn
The US (Me) decided to deploy his ships in an arrow head formation with the USS Nashville as the tip.
The US moved onto the board at Velocity 12 which I’ve decided is my utmost limit for a starting Velocity on my virtual table.
The Prussians decided to split her ships into two groups with the KMS Königgratz and KMS Leuthen on he left flank and the KMS Koblenz and U-103 on her right.
The Prussian’s came screaming onto the board at a blistering Velocity 14.
Excuse the Hexes we realised they were wrong and changed them during turn 2All the Weapons were out of range so there was no firing and no one wanted to use their torpedo’s.
I’ll post the Turn order and Velocity of the ships here for completeness.
Turn Order
1. U-103 (12)
2. Nashville (12)
3. Koblenz (11)
4. Koiniggratz (10)
5. Walsh (9)
6. Trenton (8)
7. Leuthen (6)
Starting Velocity
1. Koiniggratz = 14
2. Leuthen = 14
3. Koblenz = 14
4. U-103 = 14
5. Trenton = 12
6. Nashville = 12
7. Walsh = 12
Awesome, @elessar2590 – actually that’s exactly how @aras plays the Prussians, too. Fast! Come on the table at very high speed.
Warships can use their torpedoes straight off the bat, if you want, though. They can never run out of fuel, and in fact cannot hit in the turn in which they’re launched. Then again, I don’t think we’ve ever played on as big a table as this.
