126. Defeat of the Armada

It's the summer of 1588, and all is not well in England. Citizens are plotting to betray their Monarch for Spanish gold, and the dreaded Armada is coming closer and closer. It's up to the Queen’s Sea Dogs and navy to stop them, but will they succeed in convincing Queen Elizabeth that such action is necessary? And when the Spanish ships finally arrive, what will happen to the Virgin Queen and the citizens of London? And how will this affect the exploration, settlement and colonization of North America?
