Success

Plucky

What the corvette has in speed, it lacks in firepower.[...] it make a game attempt at evasion, jinking between the splash-booms of your bombardment. [...] you only need to get lucky once. You have not won any favours with the Navy, but your crew are satisfied.

Failure

Given the slip

The corvette is clearly outmatched, and her captain knows it. As soon as you open fire, it veers away, full steam ahead into the distance. [...] they are long out of range, and have a detailed description of your vessel to bring to the authorities.
