Battle of Nile(1-3 August 1798) 5/14
The France fleet also fights back.
The ship of the line of 7 boats in from a head before a flagship L'Orient starts bombardment.
The Minotaur which was present in the outside of a defense has exposed the body to the rake position of the flagship 120 guns ship-of-the-line L'Orient of the France fleet, and a foremast is blown away with one blow of the first shot firing guns broadside of an L'Orient.
The blown-away mast will hang down to the starboard of a Minotaur, and this warship will fall impossible action.
Although the British fleet was reorganizing the posture at last from confusion of initial shock, in this stage, the France fleet had rebuked the enemy overwhelmingly, without also receiving great damage.
