Re: Chapter 4: Caer-Dineval
Arnan ordered some chowder and beer, thinking that the "Daily Special" actually sounded pretty good, then joined his companions at the table.
Glancing over at Thane, he remarked "I liked your idea about hitting Derrick's boat with flames of some kind. Too bad your idea didn't work out . . . but I wonder if I can figure out a way to make some flaming arrows?"
"I guess maybe a bucket with some hot coals or fire aboard our own ship -- along with plenty of sand in nearby barrels to keep our captain from wetting his breeches -- and some rags soaked with pitch or something that'll burn readily tied around the head of the arrows. Should be pretty easy to hit the Howling Fiend's sail and hopefully set it afire, and maybe put some flaming arrows into her deck, as well."
"If we have sail-power and they don't, we should be able to avoid getting rammed, and we should be able to outmaneuver them, too. Plus, if the fires aboard their ship get out of control ... well, too bad for them."
OOC: Shane, are flaming arrows a possibility?
