Thus far

Well me shipmates, shivver me timbers, here we are on the southern runs into the Tierra del Fuego and the Cape of Good Hope, which we shall have to round at some point, though it is a perilous sea journey. We are approaching via South Georgia where the biggest waves in the world are to be seen. Still pursuing the SS Hadden de Merdre and his sister ship the SS Shields de Warden. A long way from the land battles between Wellington and Napoleon this weather back in Europe on the Iberian peninsular. Wellington has landed some troops in Portugal, our oldest ally, and is busy setting upon the French Imperial Guard there. General Nuno de Bras is the leading general of the Portuguese Army. Doing well to contain Napoleon's heavy cavalry regiments. These tend to get stuck in mud.
