This time Ernesto and I were playing J306 “Adriatic Night” from the designer Michael Cavallaro.
If you search a Scenario for HPS Jutland takes a look at

It was a bloody.

Ernesto took the commando of the “KuK-Marine” while I had the commando of the “La Regia Marina”.
My five light cruisers from the 2nd Scouting Squadron built a line from W to E and were searching the “KuK”-Ships in the North.

01:46 the CL Quarto had contact with a Cl and 3 DD’s.
01:54 my CL lost the contact and she got a lot of hits and was by 84%.
02:00 CL Marsala sunk. She saw for a short moment the Battleline of the “KuK”. But now I know where the “KuK”-Battleline was and I was able to build a trap. I sent out the 4Div/1DF with 4 Destroyer course North and then North-East. My Battleline turned in group NE and as I saw the van of the “KuK”-Battleline NW. I drove a torpedo attack with the 4Div/1DF and the Battleline. So Ernestos Battleships had to avoid Torpedoes from North and from the South-West.
02:16 a “Kuk”-Battleship was disable by a Torpedo.
02:17 another “Kuk”-Battleship sunk by a Torpedo.
02:58 I rode again a Torpedo attack and a “Kuk”-Battleship sunk.
02:59 the next “Kuk”-Battleship sunk by a Torpedo hit.
Now the Battleships were firing on short distance ( under 5 k’s).
03:15 a “Kuk”-Battleship sunk by Gun fire.
03:17 the next “Kuk”-Battleship sunk by Gun fire.
03:19 CA San Giorgio got a critical hit and sunk in seconds.
03:21 the seventh “Kuk”-Battleship sunk under Gun fire.

At this time Ernesto surrendered. He had lost 7 B/BB’s and I think 1 CL and some DD’s.

My casualties were 3 Cruisers and 2 DD.

It was a Major Victory for the “La Regia Marina”.
