The morning brought carnage in the western Caribbean. ACDC, the
British war machine, struck from
Great Britain's eastern holdings with sudden and merciless purpose, stripping twelve settlements from Crown sovereignty and casting them into
Neutral hands.
Portillo,
San Lazaro,
Pinar del Rio,
Corrientes,
Siguanea,
Cayman Brac,
Sale-Trou,
Jacmel, and
La Navasse fell in swift succession—a coordinated dismantling of
British territorial dominion that reads less as warfare than as systematic demolition. In parallel,
18BEK seized
Espiritu Santo from
Spain, equally content to leave it unclaimed rather than hold it. Elsewhere,
NWO captured the previously neutral
Shroud Cay for the
Pirate confederation. A cascade of battle schedule adjustments followed each flip, recalibrating the archipelago's tempo of conflict.
The economic ledger reveals an island unto itself. ACDC's ten ports—a tally inflated by yesterday's conquest—generate a staggering 680,137 reals, nearly 150,000 ahead of second-place
CFS of
Spain, whose twenty-seven holdings yield but 532,614. The gap between territorial bulk and revenue yield has never been more stark.
CFS dominates by port count amongst all clans, yet ACDC's lean, ferocious portfolio outearns her by a country mile; this is the mathematics of superior port quality and management.
Neutral holds twenty-one unclaimed settlements,
Spain's treasury stands firm at 1,199,006 reals across seventy-three ports, and the
Pirates hold nineteen holdings worth 349,249 reals. The morning's convulsion has left
Great Britain's hold on the Caribbean fractured—but her leading clan, improbably, richer still.
