Anti-Piracy Operations

Emmerich was in the process of taking out the Austrian First Fleet for its maiden voyage. This fleet comprised of ten Berengar-Class Frigates, these frigates had a crew complement of 450 men each, as well as 55 marines on board. Needless to say, it was among the finest fleets in existence, and would soon be playing a pivotal role in the establishment of Austrian power in the Mediterranean. 

It was supposed to be a standard patrol mission off the coastline of the Duchy of Austria. However, the moment these ships set sail, they quickly noticed a peculiar scene. A clipper waving the flag of Austria was in the process of being pursued by three caravels. Though the clipper was far faster than the caravels chasing after it and would eventually escape, it did not mean that the Admiral would leave such lawlessness unpunished.
