Could post the list of all the A and I Class boats but that's not cricket so I'll go for the named vessel after Acasta and pick Achates.

Well, I'll give you the class.

Get the clue now?

Algiers

Oberon · 05-26-14, 05:24 AM

Looking back, Tarjak wins this one. Having got the class of destroyer correct first.

A bit wrong on the date, I believe the picture was taken in Jan 1941 when she was part of 3rd Destroyer Flotilla.

TarJak · 05-26-14, 05:33 AM

Alright, then where is this? City or closest population centre please.

It is, but what city/town is it next to?

Jimbuna · 05-26-14, 06:22 AM

Far too easy

HunterICX · 05-26-14, 06:24 AM

Hastings, happy now!

Jimbuna · 05-26-14, 06:26 AM

Hastings aka battle of 1066

Oberon · 05-26-14, 06:27 AM

Goddammit, that's what I get for looking away for two minutes. I used to go to Hastings quite frequently and I've ridden on that railway.

I'm a tad confused...are we looking at HMS Algiers or an Algiers Class boat?

HMS Arrow.

Which was heavily damaged, and eventually written off by the explosion at Algiers.

Jimbuna · 05-26-14, 07:06 AM

Hermerico...he promised his people he would lead them from what is now Germany to the promised land but that never was the case.
