The Dutch Consortium

Unprovoked attack??????? You read your own messages?

Never, I only write them.

[Galileus]

Seeing the recent uproar between Dutch and Swedish nations and Dutch aggression, can we get a details what Dutch Consortium defines as unprovoked attack? I would like to know how far we can go and still call a counter-attack a "unprovoked" one

[Hethwill, the Red Duke]

Eleventh day of March, Year of Our Saviour two thousand and sixteen

at Loose Deuce Flotilla quarters, La Orchila

 

 

I can, without any doubt nor shame, quote the following and feel that it relates to all the three nations, United Provinces, France and Sweden.

 

"It seems to be a law of nature, inflexible and inexorable, that those who will not risk cannot win." - a patriot ( or rebellious ) privateer captain

 

​While we gather our little thunder storm a hurricane is forming in the West. Our differences make us stronger in unity, but it seems the small nation at Gustavia thinks itself worth of yet another war which cannot be won nor will it be won by them. For sheep led by wolves are always sheep.

 

​Shipping flying neutral colours was approached by this captain with the intent of knowing whom and what was the destination and cargo just to be hailed by cannon fire. After a brief fight secret letters promising gold, ships and resources to be passed, from British territories into Swedish lands right under the nose of the Danish fleets.

 

​Nothing more to add.

 

​War benefit us all.

 

​Captain Hethwill Eskeath

​Privateer-at-war, United Provinces

[Admiral Horatio Hornblower]

Our friends the Dutch knows well the convenience of our pacts.

 

They shows us they are intelligent people when they focus their war effort against Sweden and France, wars they can win. 

 

Pirates, ruskies and spaniards on the other side...
