The large cargo ships are in the center of the fleet with two large battleships to either side with one in the van and one in rear. Mediume sized cargo ships and the ships the party leased form the second ring with the ships tasked to the colony. 4 frigates are to either side of this ring with an additionaly two in the van and rear.  12 frigates and 8 small sloops run pickets around the fleet and taking time to count the number of ships the party is stunned at the commitment represtned by their presence. No less than 20 large cargo ships of at least 2000 tons form the core and 10 lesser sized cargo ships form the second ring with the party's ships. A total of 6 battleships, 24 frigates and 8 sloops form the escourt. Making good time down the coast of Gwyneede the party is startled to discover several smaller fleets waiting to join them. 12 Mediume cargo ships and 5 troop transports along with 5 frigates flying the colors of gwyneed  form one fleet.  Another flying the colors of Breechan consists of 5 large cargo ships and 3 frigates and 10 sloops. The remaing small fleet flying the colors of the Republic consists of 15 mediume cargo ships and two troop transports  escourted by 4 battleships and 8 heavy frigates. Having been stunned by the first count..the party simply counts the numbers and perhaps due to the size it appears to boggle their minds as to the amount of money..men and materials being sent by the hard headed nobles to create this new colony.  When added together there are 10 battleships 40 frigates 7 troop transports, and 18 sloops make up the military escourt while  25 2000 ton plus cargo ships...37 500 ton plus mediume cargo ships and 30 smaller 100 ton ships form the merchant fleet attached...thus 71,500 tons of cargo in additionn to what the warships may carry are commited to the succes of the colony.On the third week of sailing.......the party receives an invitation to the flagship for dinner....Comments...actions</blockquote>
