We've not bothered the lads of the Jeune École for a while, so this here is Le Fulminant - and no, it's not parked in front of another, taller vessel.Built as a coastal defence ship, about the only interesting thing it did was to attack the coast - and more specifically a rock outside Le Conquet that nearly sank it.And coincidentally Le Conquet sounds like a pretty good way to describe the event...#FailureFriday

@DreadShips that superstructure puts me in mind of a seaside pier-head kiosk, or possibly a branch-line railway station.

@sheddi @DreadShips Perfectly camoflaged for an assault on Ryde Pier, it is.
