Harry, I didn't said that catapults were useless, what I said is that due to being used on a ship, where they don't have the same stability as in land, the catapults were a terrible choice against another ships, since it was hard to calculate precisely or nearly where the projectile would fall. I just think that you'd be wasting a ship of your fleet with a poor choice of weapon against ships. They were used more against air strikes, which were easier to hit and more accurate. Also, as I've said in my post there are 7 ships. Oh, don't you think those letter arrived extremely fast? The battle has barely started xD)

"What are our orders, then, King Rob? Are we to ride towards Fort Pelin or continue to Fort Storig?", Farraud asked as his men helped the others in aiding their wounded comrades.

"More importantly...How did they knew we were here? Even if we are a large army, the Gauvadon Forest is bigger and it would be hard to not only find us, but to find us, surpass us and set a trap.", he added.

The ships of Farrun closed on the two ships of White Haven, with the heavy ones at both ends, attempting to ram the hull of their enemies. (It wouldn't be any different to a cannon mortar. The waves would only be a real problem if they were in the open sea in bad weather. They are docked in the harbor so the waves would not be a problem for them. The letter was sent by Lord Vardengroet before the attack, when the pirates were destroying ships that tried to leave or enter the coast the village is located in. Ramming a docked ships would be a bit unwise, you might hit the docks themselves and end up destroying your own ships.)

"I want a report, then I want the dead to be burried. Once that is done we will continue towards Fort Storig. Fort Pelin is in Evermore and I would not want to make an enemy of King Julien when we still have the westerners to fight." Rob replied.

"I will set up lookout to make sure we have a warning in case the soldiers decide to attack again." Knight-Commander Ormax said. He then headed off to relay the order.

Some tents were set up in the clearing. The King went to see his mother, check to see if she was alright.

The ballistae armored ship shot its rounds at hull of the pirates ships, aiming down near the water so as to break holes into the ship and cause them to sink.

The catapult armored ships fired in tall arcs, trying to land a blow from above and burn the ships.
