[quote=@Aceofreality] The officer informed them that their capital was due to the southwest and gave a description of it. It was a large and industrialized city, and very well defended. He also gives very precise directions to get there. _ The Yahupi didn't like how this ship was driven deeper into the straight. The leader of the forces there declared that all trebuchet's shall be aimed at it and fire upon this vessel. The trebuchet's turn and start firing their flaming cannonballs at the VNMS Trionator. Sometimes some of them have spikes. The leader also ordered them to fire upon it, and muskets started firing at this ship. [/quote] "Alrighty then. I'll send the messenger back to the southern colonial government to send an ambassador.. for.. something.. in return of having a good relation while possibly an access through the east indie." said by the Veilletes Explorer. -------- The flaming cannonballs does eventually hit directly at the VNMS Trionator, but being bounced off with a small scratches on its metallic surfaces and a splintered fracture of a wooden deck. In other words, no damage has been taken from a ship by an outdated siege weapon in two eras behind. The Yahupi muskets doesn't fare too well against a metal battleship as everything were reflected off by the plate of armor, some of those shots landed inaccurately onto the surface of an ocean, and ultimately in the end, just only manage to wound a single sailor openly exposed from VNMS Triotanor side deck. "THAT'S IT! These natives just have scratched my fudging 2 days paint job already!" Angered by the captain. "Captain! We've reported that one of our crewmen has been hit by a gunshot! He's now carrying back to the medical ward for tendering his wound." Called upon by the 1st Commanding Officer. "Attention to all gunners, manned all the secondaries, prepare to return fire at those flaming weapon devices and smoldering the rest of their inhabitants! Repeat! Manned all the secondaries, prepare to return fire at those flaming weapon devices and smoldering the rest of their inhabitants! Over and out!" Ordered by the captain while ringing by the ship's alarm. The VNMS Trionator rotated their secondary guns at the facing of one of Yahupi islands and beginning to fire High Explosive rounds at them without mercy. This eventually causes some destruction of natural floras and faunas of the island as after taking a few land hits, turning a whole place into a conflicted zone.
