Naval Skirmish at Sharp Point

[Jokern]

On its way to King's Landing, the Stormlander fleet under Lord Tarth encounters a small fleet under Crackclaw banners. The much larger green fleet immediately makes it way to engage the blacks.

Stormlander Fleet
120 Levy Ships
72 Dromonds
38 Heavy Galleys
23 Stormbreaker Ships

Total: 255 ships

Crackclaw Fleet
24 Levy Ships

OOC: due to the size difference, I guess special orders won't be necessary unless Shank wants to do anything.

[Dirty Chai]

OOC: Correction, there is actually 120 ships at Sharp Point, not 60.

Orders:

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

Knowing that retreating isn't an option Alyn has a raven fly to Dragonstone and inform them of Stormlander's fleets. He orders the ships to all form up on the left flank, furthest away from the headland of Sharp Point. He hopes to smash into the right flank of the enemy fleet quickly and fiercely, before their ships in the centre and left can respond. From there, if successful, he will drive into the exposed centre, pushing the enemy fleet closer to the headland so they have less space to manoeuvre, pursue or escape.

Battle off the Coast of Sharps Point:

The attempted flaming maneuver of the Black's commander failed to achieve a good result. While initially being able to overwhelm the Green right flank, reinforcements from the unhindered center and left quickly turned the tide of the battle resulting in a massive rout for the Black forces. Losses on the Greens was minor and partially offset by the captured Black warships.

Remaining Ships

Greens:

Main Fleet:
108 Levy Ships
65 Dromonds
33 Heavy Galleys
20 Stormbreaker Ships
2 Grand Warships

Captured Ships:
3 Levy Ships
2 Dromons
1 War Galleys

Blacks:

24 Levy Ships
16 Dromons
12 War Galleys
6 Narrow Sea Galleons
2 Grand Warships

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

OOC: Cheers HB, I assume the remaining fleet will retreat to Dragonstone?

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

The Southern Vale Fleet moves from the tile left of Sharp Point to engage what remains of the Stormlanders fleet.

I'll need a second set of orders if we are to have a battle here.

The bulk of the Black's naval strength is placed in the centre, ready to crush into Stormlander's line. The flanks will move up, battling back the Stormlander's flanks whilst attempting to encircle the smaller enemy fleet, whilst the centre assaults from the front.

Er, with Jokern inactive right now due to internet problems, this may be problematic. I'll see if there is any other Stormlander player who could give orders for the fleet and if not, I'll stick to the most basic of orders for the battle.

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

OOC: Thanks HB.

[Oakshield]

Ps: i'll be on line for a hour now and back in about 7 hours if you want to have the orders given as soon as possible just tell me so. By tomorow morning i should be ready to shout them out.

[Oakshield]

Ooc: i control a Tarth Char. I don't think there is any one besides me in that family. Can i rp as Lord Tarth and give the orders? I am a neebie so it s half for real and half learning process for me. I might need some instruction from de mods but i ll be a player and that is allways better that fighting a mod or a AI char right?

[Shankbot de Bodemloze]

Go for it.

To find out what you need to do for a Naval Battle go to this part of the rules thread and look under "Campaigning IV (Naval Units and Naval Battles)" by clicking on that heading.

[Honors Bastion]

As long as I get a set of orders, I'm fine with it. I had actually wanted to get this rolled out earlier but the forum has been giving me trouble all day long with long load times and 500 errors.

[Oakshield]

Unaweare of the fate of the realm, the Evenstar was still engaged in gaining sharp point. If he could at least ocupy the enemy forces while his Lord fought on land, his duty would be fullfiled. But the arraival of reinforcements whith the moon over their masts would proove deadly to him and all of those under his comand if he didn't took the right decision right now. There was no time to think, and yet, fright paralized his throat and his thougts... let them come... we will be ready he told himself trying to belive.

Ooc: working on it... tkyou for the link

Orders for the Tarth fleet

Remaining Ships

Greens:

Main Fleet:
108 Levy Ships 1080
65 Dromonds 1950
33 Heavy Galleys 1650
20 Stormbreaker Ships 1600
2 Grand Warships 200

Captured Ships:
3 Levy Ships 30
2 Dromons 60
1 War Galleys 50

Distribution:

5 groups: left reserve, right reserve, and the usual centr right and left

In the center will be 100 levys
Left will be with 30 dromonds and 15 heavy galeys
Right will be with 30 dromonds and 15 heavy galeys. Total 160 ships.

The left reserve will count with 10 stormbreakers 5 leavy 4 dromonds 2 heavy
The right reserve will count with 10 storbreakers 6 levys 3 dromonds and one heavy.

After the first strike i will order the two reserve gropus to surround and strique from all sides, trying to force mistakes from the oposing comanders and concentrating the atacks over the enemy that should be lured into a bad position by the three main groups of weaker ships. I want the victory to seam easyer than it seems so the idea is to try to embrace the battle area without being noticed at first (even if it means resiving the first blow with lesser ships than i could).

There is no trait ponctuation for tge lord of tarth. He is suposebly an NPC. But we could assume at least +1 for naval battles.

Sorry it took so long. Hope it works.

[Dirty Chai]

So this isn't rolled?
