Shay Cormac's fleet

Gist: "It was the damndest thing... Well, in any case, amongst other things I found map and charts detailing various French trade routes."

Shay: "What are you thinking, Gist? "

Gist: "I thought perhaps we could use them to, er, help the Royal Navy... and fill our pockets. I stored these maps in your cabin, Captain, should you wish to use them"

—Shay Cormac and Christopher Gist talking about the founding of a fleet, 1756.

Shay Cormac's fleet was a formation of ships captured in the north Atlantic Ocean during the Seven Years' War and captained by the Colonial Templar Shay Cormac's crew members. They were sent on various missions throughout the world, often aiding the British Empire during the war. At its height, the fleet consisted of 15 ships of different types, not including Shay's sloop-of-war Morrigan. While not possible in obtaining Royal Navy ships through combat, Shay could capture those disabled by snow tornadoes throughout the Atlantic and send it to his own fleet.

The fleet began operating in 1756, after Shay helped the British take over Fort La Croix. There, navigator Christopher Gist discovered various map and charts detailing French trade routes and suggested for Shay to use them as a way to help the Royal Navy and enrich themselves. The first mission was to the French colony of Louisiana.
