Kalana seems surprised upon seeing smoke from the island. "Seems they are fighting back," she says. "Get me to Teyths' ship. He'll be trying to leave now."

The Bluemoon "Admiral, I think he already is. Take a look!" Bayla calls out.
Using her spyglass, Kalana can see that it appears the locals have revolted. They've set the rest of the fleet on fire, and it's burning in the harbor--with one exception. Tethys' flagship, a mighty galleon, survives unscathed and is disembarking to join the battle. It would seem Tethys is in fact, coming toward her.
The Blue Diamond Senllip's crew kill the three remaining boarders. No more come after this, though. It seems that Brax's ship has disabled the caravel, and they have now surrendered.
The Salty Dwarf "We'd need to use the Tiaru's crew, as we don't have enough people on our own," Thom informs Brax.

I'll go see who's up fer it." the dwarf asks the crew that came up to help fight the Gunn fleet "Any o' yah up fer boardin their caravel? Bring more of yer crew from bellow if yah are."

OOC: I don't know which of our ships is better, but Senllip wants to: 1. disarm the enemies of all weapons. 2. get all his crew and the enemy on the better ship. 2.5 use the enemies to men crew positions to get best speed and tie the extra crew 3. Drag the other ship to the Tiaru survivors so they can men it. 4. Join the fight with range weapons and later on with the other ship with the Tiaru crew.
So I'm posting as is the Blue Diamond is the better ship, but if it is otherwise instead of letting the enemy come to the Blue diamond, his crew will get to the caravel after the enemies drop their weapons, and then verify they are completely disarmed.
Can you please post again a map of the current situation? Also were are the survivors and which ships surrendered? Thanks.
------------------------------------------------------------------
"Everyone, drop your weapons... crossbows, swords, daggers, pistols and all." Senllip calls to their enemies. "Now come to our ship nice and easy, tie your ship to ours and man the crew positions. I won't ask you to fight your friends on your fleet, but if one of you will show signs of heroism, one of you next to the hero will pay with his life." After securing the caravel and filling the crew positions to achieve most speed, if there are any spare men Senllip orders to tie them up. In the meanwhile Senllip speaks with his sister: "Cassie, flag Brax our thanks and then set a course to help in the fight, but if we can collect the Tiaru survivors on our path, I'd like them to men the caravel and help as well."

The Bluemoon "We have some time before the flag ship arrives," Auli'i agrees. She pours all of her healing magic into Kalana, and while it's not enough to get her back to full health, it does get her pretty close.
The Blue Diamond "Brother, I think it unwise to bring the enemy onto our ship," Cassie warns Senllip. "Even without weapons, they outnumber us almost two to one. If they decided to mutiny, they would almost certainly cripple the ship, even if they failed to take it. Better to leave them on their own ship, which is too damaged to do any further harm."
The Salty Dwarf Another twenty crewmen and 5 marines ascend to the deck to help Brax's crew. He now has a full complement, and adding anyone else will just cause everyone to get in each other's way. As for the caravel, it's in bad shape and even so, there's nobody to captain it, so transferring crewmen over to it seems like it wouldn't accomplish very much.
===========

"You are probably right." Senllip agrees. Under threat of crossbows he commands the survivors of the caravel to throw their range weapon to sea and then back to Cassie, "Let's move on to help our friends."
============================================ (OOC: I thought that if we leave the men on the caravel they will start attacking again. )

"How are the other ships doing?" Kalana asks. "I'm Going to try to make this into a showdown," she says.

While Brax orders his people to hold, and Senllip directs his crew to sail the Blue Diamond back toward the others, Kalana asks for a report. "Looks like all enemy ships have been defeated," Bayla calls down. "But the Gunn flagship is now approaching. So it's one ship against five, but all of our ships have taken casualties and damage, while the flagship is fresh and untouched."

"Cassie, since there is only the flagship against the five of us, make course to set us from the side of Tethys ship if he confronts Kalana. If we split their resources in several directions it will be harder for them to defend and attack. Signal Brax to do the same. If we all attack at once from all direction it will be a devastating blow."

Brax heaves a sigh when he gets the signal and orders his crew to move up towards the flag ship and their flag ship. "Orders is orders. Even If I dun like em. We gotta aid our admiral."

Kalana"Easier said than done," Auli'i cautions. "This ship has taken severe damage. If we get into range of their weapons, especially their cannons, there's no guarantee we'll get close enough to board." "Admiral, we're getting a message from the Blue Diamond," Bayla calls down. "They want us to attack the flagship from all sides." Senllip"Aye," Cassie says. She directs one of the remaining crewmen to send a message to the other ships. BraxAs the remaining five ships converge, Thom says, "We're getting a message from the halfling's ship. He wants us to attack the flagship from every angle," he tells Brax. =============== The Dreadnought, Tethys' galleon and flagship, sails toward the party's fleet. It's a huge ship with heavy ballistae, heavy catapults and multiple cannons.
