Battle of New Orleans - 2/10/08

"We fired our guns and the French kept a commin'
but there weren't as many of 'em as there was a while ago.

We fired once more and they began to runnin'
all the way through Lees'eana to the Gulf of Mexico.

They ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles
they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go.

They ran so fast that we couldn't catch 'em
all the way through Lees'eana to the Gulf of Mexico!"

Congrats to us for winning the first attack against a French Port. San Patricios played an important part in the battle. First by sinking a couple of the first french ships that got caught out of line at the rear and then by storming the town and meeting the defenders in hand-to-hand combat. We also had a full group of six.

Keep levelling guys and get a good heavy ship to set aside for Port Battles. This is the most fun in the game in my opinion.

Good job last night I listened in while you guys went at it. Another bit of advice is have more than 1 contention point to get in the battle ( I tried ). The defense of Turtling bay went quite well the night before. Pablo and I lead the pick up squad and we crushed the Brits
