James and his men form a line, and being marching forward slowly, while firing at the enemy soldiers, taking cover when possible. The 2 of the battalions station themselves around the mansion, while the other 2 go near the cave. They decide the Swedes can stay and keep the cave, and begin firing mortar shots above it, causing a cave in and sealing the men in the cave. Then they set up a perimeter and aim their mortars towards the city, prepared to instantly bombard anyone foolish enough to leave the city and head towards the mansion. The remaining local militia and the English sailors retreat away from Jack and James men back into their ships and help fire against the Swedish ships. The sea battle is nearly over, with the last remaining Swedish ship being sunk. The English fleet took some damage but they now are now forming a blockade. James looks to Jack.
This isn't good Jack. We can't leave the city by land due to mortars, and if we go by sea the blockade will kill us. We should probably start thinking of a new plan.
I'm a meanie head! Beware my Meanness
