To sea, to sea, to sea we go...

[Choinski, Burton]

Well, that was a fast voyage...
After getting the boat, hiring sailors and such, they proceed to sail down
into Climan waters. After a quiet trip down (not a single ship or storm
encounter roll!) they beach on one of the plains Climan islands.  A bit of
recon, seing how the supposedly "small" island had hundreds of soldiers and
chaos priests and casters, along with local population, they decide to head
back to marentia.  A brief encounter on the way back with a Climan Bireme,
which they managed to defeat due to one player casting a 6d10 fireball at
the deck and sails (which cooked the deck crew), followed by a bit more work
on the oars, they decided to leave the crippled ship and went home.

Sold boat and plan to keep to the land for now. Probably leave the Marentian
area and head "north" (I would guess they plan to head to Caldo/Djanesborg)

*sigh*

Well, since my next game is not for 3 weeks, and the next need for ships way
past that, I have time to work on the ship rules instead of rushing them.
