Description
Classic Nelson manouevre - English ships cut across French ships of of the line avoiding broad-sides. Then English ships rake the French ships stern to bow and/or bow to stern with cannon balls travelling the whole length of the ship taking out crew and guns en masse.

Nice naval image & representation of what Nelson would call crossing the "T". And as you so well demonstrate in the pic, it does have a devastating effect on the stern and prow, really like the sea & how you portray the fog of war literally... good going

Excellent job displaying one of Nelson's classic maneuvers. The same tactic was successfully used in the Battle of Surigao Strait in 1944. Love the water and smoke effects. I don't know if your ship models allow it, but the yards on the English ships should be angled a bit more to the right to catch the same winds being used by the French. Really excellent scene here!
