Here is a sea battle in progress. The party's ship, Sea Snake, is headed straight in for boarding, right through a cloud of hobgobin-fired crossbow bolts. Two characters already down (damn those Helgkhorians!), but once the melee begins, the hobgoblins are probably in big trouble.

This is a Helgkhorian pirate ship. No guarantees of any cargo, but maybe they've got some booty of their own. They are fighting back, after all.
