	The [[Molossian Navy\|Molossian Naval Infantry]] was slowed by weather in late May in its advance against Mustachistani forces. However, as events unfolded slowly in the west, the nascent Eastern Front exploded into activity with a battle on Lake Jean, in the [[~~Molossian~~ Protectorate of New Antrim]]. Lake Jean had been the target of Mustachistani forces seeking not only to gain a foothold in New Antrim, but also to divert resources from the developing campaign near the Molossian Home Territories.

	Thus, the Molossian Naval Forces of New Antrim (The Atlantic Fleet) set out to repel the Mustachistani threat on Lake Jean. Mustachistani elements had moved to establish themselves on the lake, and Grand Admiral Hess immediately launched his fleet to repel the threat. The Atlantic Fleet consisted of two vessels, the Canoe-class MS-3 ''Boomer'' and the Kayak-class MS-4 ''Old Towne'', both vessels in excellent fighting trim and manned by three very able sailors. The ''Boomer'' served as the fleet flagship. The Mustachistanis launched two vessels in response, two Kayak-class boats, the ''Dagger'' and the ''Corsica''.

	Shortly after launching, the ''Boomer'', commanded by Grand Admiral Hess, landed on Middle Island in Lake Jean, before the Mustachistanis were even in the water. The ''Old Towne'', the other vessel, commanded by Grand Admiral Hess' brother, harried the Mustachistanis across the lake. Grand Admiral Hess stepped heroically onto Middle Island with the ''Boomer's'' XO and proceeded to help the ''Old Towne'' make landfall.
