The man would stay duty and protect what they owned in case it would come to close combat once the enemy would climb upon their ship, therefor Leopold remained within the cargo hold, sword drawn - Ready to stab eyeballs out of everyone until they would meet death by his Rapier, if anyone dared to touch their goods. It was his duty to protect it and so it shall be, by new lordship of adventure! OOC: Leopold may be so dutiful that he even takes some naps in the cargo hold rather than sleeping in the quarters; causing him some (back)aches occasionally and not as recovering sleep as it could be.
"... French, ya say? I got a debt to settle with 'em stinkin' french!" He ran over to Jolee. "I'll help ya! We'r gonn' sink their ship real good with these!"
" AIM FOR THEIR MASTS AND CANNONS" John yelled from the wheel as the ship had completely turned its flanks, "ABDA TAKE THE WHEEL" he said as he then left the wheel and to run down and begin climbing up the the riggings, all the way up to the lookout petch where Antti was holding tight, "when we get close, i want you to take out their quarter master, or some other officer, but leave the captain to me." He then grapped a stern hold on the mast, "FIRE AT WILL, GIVE THEM NO CHANCE TO RESPITE," most of the other cannons now also manned and loaded by other crew members.
Antti nodded and fetched his flintlock rifle.. well, actually he just grabbed it, since it was resting against the lookout post's edge. "Let's see how those franks like lead, eiks jee?" He pressed the rifle's butt against his shoulder and scanned the French schooner up and down. "Come out, come out someone of great importance."
With the ships now circling, the sails didn't need too much meddling so all that was left for Reiner to do was to enjoy the fireworks. And hope the frenchies didn't have chain-shot.
"Aye aye, kapt'n! These cabrones ain't gonna win over us!" Jorge then took aim with the cannon at the mast, and lighted the fuse. He then moved a bit away so he was a bit safer from anything bad happening with the cannon.
"bloody French bastards! LETS SEE IF THA' FROGS CIN SWIM!" *Camillus yelled as he ran over to man one of the cannons, ready to draw his cutlass should it come to it, and he somewhat hoped that it did*
Standing at one of the cannons, Samuel yelled out over the noise of the battle. "Ay Frenchie is it true what they say about your king, that he's sucked even more cocks than your whore queen?" As soon as one of the Frenchmen started to yell back, he put flame to the fuse and fired the cannon. "Eat that you baguette munching bastards!"
"That's the spirit!" Jorge told Samuel just as he lighted the fuse of his cannon again. "Those basterd Frenchies, right?"
