NWOL Fall 2005 Campaign
Naval Operations: Turns 1-4
At sea, the fleets in the Mediterranean concentrated. The Sardinians
sent 12 ships to join the French at Toulon. The Spanish, Russians, and
British sailed to the Western Mediterranean, concentrating 31 ships
there, while sending squadrons ahead to Cagliari and the Central
Mediterranean to scout for the enemy fleet. The Spanish found Cagliari
empty; their Central Mediterrean squadron failed to detect 6 Sardinian
ships and an unloaded transport group headed to Nice. The British,
Russians, and Spanish fleet proceeded to Cagliari, concentrating 43
ships there, hoping to prevent the Sardinian fleet from re-entering the
port. Meantime, the French and Sardinian fleet from Toulon was sailing
into the Western Mediterranean, looking for the British and Spanish in
those waters. Not finding them, and hearing that a Spanish squadron had
been sighted at Cagliari on turn 1, the French and Sardinians
themselves moved to that port on turn 3, where the British, Russian,
and Spanish fleets awaited them. Several British ships had departed
Cagliari on turn 3, but had been replaced by an arriving Spanish
squadron, leaving 41 ships to face the 50 French and Sardinian ships.
On turn 4, the fleets engaged, the French fighting from windward, and
the French and Sardinians won a crushing victory, sinking 16 ships and
capturing 16 prizes in exchange for the loss of 6 of their own ships.
The Russian navy was entirely destroyed; the British and Spanish
survivors sailed west for the safety of the Spanish coast. The
victorious fleet put into Cagliari for repairs, bringing the naval war
to a pause for several turns. The British and Dutch fleets in the North
Sea and the English Channel immediately sent additional ships to the
Mediterranean.
