Background

The Atakebune is a floating fortress. Its outer hull is plated with thick bronze and steel making it impervious to most attacks, artillery fires out unimpeded from every angle and its upper deck is twice the height of most vessels giving it a significant advantage in combat. More than 100 crew can comfortably fit on the ship and all are also highly trained as soldiers.

This particular ship has been marauding the coastline for months, firing on port towns and halting all sea faring traffic. None of the local navy’s ships can get close without being sunk. The admiral is looking for an elite team to sneak aboard the ship, take out its general, and blow up the gunpowder cache in the hold.
