Role-Play- Troubles In Tortuga

[D00T]

As Jack and his crew approach the shore, several screams and shouts are heard from the fort, and it once again descends into silence

[D00T]

Just saying that the people aren’t dead, well some are, but not all

[Jack Teach]

Meanwhile, Stan Rogers was seen slipping away from his Exquisite Wife's boudoir after delivering some ruby encrusted jewelry.
He was heard softly singing this song

Sorry for the late reply was busy.

Ellen and Emily get in the same boat as Jack, they hang near the back, Ellen in silent contemplation and Emily giggling excited for battle.

[Jack Teach]

The men begin to row ashore, all of jack's sailors have at least one musket, a cutlass and pistol. None of the officers except Jack carries one, he carries a musketoon, a shortened musket. Jack has four pistols, and his favorite cutlass with a shell guard. The pirates row ashore, as they do so, everyone sees that many men lie dead in the mouth of the cave. None of the men talk, the only sound is the sound of oars. The boats meet the shore, and jack and his men form ranks in a disheveled sort of way. The pirates make their way up the hill, walking towards the mouth of the cave.

[Meliva]

Ellen and Emily walk a short distance behind Jack, they examine the men as they walk looking for any with a face scar-none do, though it is a bit hard to tell with some. Emily is keeps a throwing dagger in both hands she has 13 of them she never liked using guns as she is a terrible shot but she excelled using darts and throwing knives. She also has with her favorite 2 knives she uses in close quarters both recently coated with a bit of her special homebrewed poison. Ellen on the other hand simply has 2 weapons, her very large morning star, and a pistol. They keep an eye out for any ambushes.

[Jack Teach]

More than 100 shots ring from the mouth of the cave, Jack ducks and fires his rifle, not knowing if he hit anything. He and his men charge to the mouth of the cavern, each men firing with extreme rapidity. The pirates in the cavern shoot accurately and precisely and Jack's men begin to drop very quickly. When all of a sudden, Jack's men surround the place through the different entrances and the battle begins. jack and his men charge on, Jack fighting like a devil with his cutlass and pistols, shooting and cutting down everything down in his path.

[Meliva]

Emily feels a sting in her side a bullet had hit her, she laughs as she quickly throws a knife back at the shooter killing him. She throws a few more but she decides to save several knives for later. She ducks down in cover as she examines the wound. She can tell from looking at it that it didn't pierce any vital organs, and she feels on her back and finds an exit hole, which is good it means the bullet isn't lodged inside her. Ellen takes some of the alcohol and douses both sides, and quickly bandages her. She says in a worried voice

Emmie, PLEASE be careful, i don't want you dying.

Emily laughs

These maggots killing me? Unlikely, and even if they did id claw my way out of the grave if I had to.

Code: Select all

35-40 minutes of constant barrage.  Nice infinite ammo cheat you have there, that or your completely out of ammunition.  A gun manned by an experienced crew could fire at a rate of 2-3 shots every 5 mins.  So that's an average 2 mins per shot.  Based on the 35-40 mins of firing you have 17-20 shots for the each cannon during the time.
  So a ship that has 100 guns will have 50 of them firing (not all of your cannons are firing at once as half of them are on the side of the ship facing away from the "fort"), thats between 850 and 1000 rounds being fired from that ship alone.

2 Man-of-Wars, 3 Ships of the Line, and 5 Large Frigates bearing no markings and no flags slide up behind Jack's 20 ships that have expended there ammunition. After about 15 mins of battle, the 20 ships of Jack's fleet are either sunk or critically damaged. The attack fleets leave under the cover of the smoke from battle, without picking up any survivors or taking any plunder.
