The plans seem great to me, except for the Greek fire. I think it should be kept till the main battle, else all of our battles from now on would use it, as it wouldn't be very logical for the Corsairs to use this weapon once and not use it again untill Umbar. But using it in each battle (as a ship with such a weapon probably would do) is too often; once each fight began, it would turn into a retreat from the Wildfire of Umbar.
Is there another way the ships could come close enough to exchange some blows without the fire?
