The ready ammunition detonates as the Velucian shells tear into the turret. The explosion trails down into the top of the ammunition magazine, setting it off. A large chunk from the upper hull on the bow is simply obliterated, leaving a massive hole. The windows to the bridge shatter, knocking many of the officers there to the ground and wounding them. Half of the riflemen on deck are killed by the explosion as well as 19 more men below decks.

The 25mm autocannon on the side of the ship redirects its fire to the Velucian ship's bridge. It is highly unlikely that the ship has armor capable of stopping the 25mm rounds from punching through to the insides of the ship.

The magazine detonation severed bridge control of one of the Exocet launchers. Capitaine Toutain drags himself off the deck, bleeding from several cuts after the bridge's windows shattered. "Report!" He shouts.

"Main gun is gone, and a large portion of the magazine detonated. We've lost connection to one of the missile launchers. Casualties both above and below decks.The magazine detonation rattled the entire ship badly enough to damage the engines. We are losing speed."

"Merde..." The Capitaine mumbles.
