HMS Victory was a terrible and awe-inspiring sight to both enemies and allies. It has become one of the most famous ships in the world and is still in commission in the Royal Navy to this day; as of 2019 a total of 241 years of service.

First Rate

HMS Victory was a First Rate Ship-of-the-Line, the most powerful type of ship of her day. She had three gun decks mounting 100 guns. The Royal Navy had always built very large ships to fight major fleet battles. The French and Spanish navies did not tend to build First Rates until after the American War of Independence in 1783. Though launched in 1765 she was not commissioned until 1778. This long period of weathering meant her timbers were well seasoned and are a major reason for her long life.

Though launched on 7th May 1765 HMS Victory, the ship was not commissioned until 1778. Over a period of 34 years, between 1778 and 1812, HMS Victory took part in five naval battles. Commissioned for service in the American War of Independence, Victory fought in the First and Second Battles of Ushant and the Battle of Cape Spartel. During the French Revolutionary War, she was Admiral Jervis' flagship at the Battle of Cape St Vincent.

In 1805 she achieved lasting fame as the flagship of Vice-Admiral Nelson in Britain's greatest naval victory, the defeat of the French and Spanish at the Battle of Trafalgar.

Battle of Trafalgar (21 October 1805)

Early in 1805, Vice Admiral Lord Nelson commanded the British fleet in a protracted blockade of Toulon. The French fleet successfully evaded Nelson's when storms disrupted the British blockade. Following a swift search of the Mediterranean, Nelson realised that the French had crossed the Atlantic Ocean towards the Carribean. He thus set off in pursuit.

After pursuing the Admiral in charge of the Franco-Spanish Fleet, Pierre-Charles Villeneuve, to the Caribbean and back, Admirals Lord Nelson and Collingwood finally engaged the enemy. On the 21st of September 1805, just off the southwest coast of Spain, west of Cape Trafalgar, near the town of Los Canos de Meca, the two mighty fleets engaged. The French fleet was in disarray, and Nelson had devised an unorthodox tactic in an attempt to conclusively defeat the Franco-Spanish fleet.

Nelson organised the British ships to sail perpendicularly across and through the French line. This meant that each British broadside was met by limited French counterfire.

HMS Victory Engages

For 40 minutes, Victory was under fire from the enemy ships of the line Heros, Santísima Trinidad, Redoutable, and Neptune. She cut the enemy line between Villeneuve's flagship Bucentaure and Redoutable; cutting a devastating broadside against the flagship, before engaging the 74-gun Redoubtable directly. The melee resulted in the two vessels locking masts. Nelson was shot by a French marksman from the Redoutable at the height of the battle and was carried below decks.

As the crew of the Redoubtable prepared to board HMS Victory, the 2nd ship of the British windward column, HMS Temeraire, emerged from the smoke and poured devastating carronade fire into the starboard side of Redoubtable. Its Captain, with less than twenty per cent of his crew fighting-fit remaining, surrendered.

More and more British ships entered the battle, gradually overwhelming the remaining allied ships. Nelson did not die until 16.30, well after British victory was already assured. Out of a crew of 821, Victory suffered 57 men killed and 102 wounded; a significant number for a battle of this type.

Though he himself perished, Nelson's fleet captured or destroyed 22 enemy ships, for no losses. Some of the captured vessels were destroyed, however, in the aftermath of the battle.

Nelson's body was borne home aboard his flagship. After lying in state at Greenwich, he was buried in St. Paul's Cathedral on 9 January 1806.

After Trafalgar

HMS Victory herself suffered in the battle, and at forty years of service was refitted as a second rate in 1807. She did not see further combat. After further service in the Baltic and off the coast of Spain, Victory was put into reserve in 1812 in Portsmouth. The ship had struck the public's chord, and any threat of decommissioning the ship resulted in public outcry. To this end, HMS Victory remains a commissioned vessel of the Royal Navy to this day.

In the Game

H.M.S Victory is a potent force on the tabletop. Aside from a formidable array of weaponry and fantastic resilience, her inspiring presence confers a bonus to all nearby friendly ships when they are required to take a skill test. If Nelson is present, this bonus is augmented yet further!

No annoying "Disk not ejected properly" messages!
Color: Space grey
I use these with MacBook Airs, both Intel and Apple M3, and they stay connected. Previous —cheaper—dongles kept disconnecting with no apparent moving of the computer or the dongle. I'd get the annoying "Disk not ejected properly" message repeatedly, meaning I'd have to remove the dongle plug, reinsert it, and hope that the external device showed up on the computer and stayed connected. These always stay connected and seem to work well for the external devices I use. I think it's in the plug: with the Acer, I hear a distinct little click when the plug is fully inserted—perhaps some subtle locking mechanism the cheaper dongles did not have.

Instantly addressed a defective unit
Color: Space grey
2nd EDIT: Not only did the company offer a refund, they also generously shipped me another unit, and it works just as it should! They gave fast responses when the first unit gave me issues, and addressed it as well as you possibly could. I would use them any time! EDIT: the company quickly reached out and offered a full refund as a result of a faulty product. For me, that goes a long way. I have plenty of ACER products and normally have no issues with them. could have just been a faulty single product. Very bummed. For the first 2 hours of use it worked great. When it’s just USB-C to HDMI connected it works fine, but the second I go to plug my Mac in, while using the HDMI to stream to my monitor, the screen begins flashing every second or two on both my Mac, and the monitor. The flashing screen is happening at the same time the Mac keeps making its “chime” that the charger is connected, over and over again. Clearly something is going on that the charging is not staying active. whenever the charger is first connected it causes a quick(ish)black screen, which I could live with if it just happened right as I plugged the charger in… but when the charger KEEPS thinkings it’s just getting plugged in over and over, and keeps flashing, it kind of makes the product useless. And I’ve already thrown the box away so I guess I’m stuck with a product that doesn’t work. Super bummer.

Beyond Impressed
Color: Space grey
I recently picked up the Acer 7-in-1 USB-C Hub and I have to say, I am beyond impressed with its performance and functionality. As someone who frequently uses a laptop for both work and personal tasks, this little device has completely changed the way I connect my peripherals and external devices. What I Love: Compact Design & Build Quality: Despite packing so many ports into such a small form factor, the Acer USB-C Hub is surprisingly lightweight yet feels sturdy. The sleek aluminum finish not only looks professional but also helps keep things cool during extended use. It’s incredibly portable and fits easily in my bag alongside my laptop. Wide Range of Ports: This hub includes 7 different ports, which is a dream for anyone who needs to expand their connectivity. It includes: HDMI port (4K support) for connecting to external monitors or TVs, USB 3.0 ports (two) for fast data transfer or connecting peripherals like keyboards, mice, or external hard drives, SD and MicroSD card readers (perfect for photographers or videographers), Ethernet port for reliable wired internet connections (a must for stable work-from-home setups), USB-C power delivery port for charging your laptop while using the hub. Whether you're using it for office tasks, media consumption, or creative work, this hub has you covered. Plug & Play: I’m a huge fan of how easy this hub is to use. There’s no need for extra drivers or software. Simply plug it into your USB-C port, and it’s ready to go! My MacBook, Windows laptop, and even my tablet all recognized the device instantly without any issues. Fast and Stable Performance: I’ve tested the data transfer speeds using both USB drives and external hard drives, and the speeds are consistently fast. The HDMI output worked seamlessly, delivering crisp 4K video to my TV without any lag or glitches. The Ethernet connection is a lifesaver when I need a stable internet connection for remote work or video calls. Affordable Price: Considering the versatility and quality, the price of this hub is a steal! Many hubs in this range only offer a handful of ports, but Acer’s 7-in-1 gives you a full suite of connectivity options at a great value. A Couple of Notes: Heat Management: During extended use, the hub can get a little warm, especially if you're using the HDMI output or transferring large files. However, it never got hot enough to be a concern, and it hasn’t impacted performance at all. Compatibility: While it works perfectly with laptops that have a USB-C port with power delivery, make sure your device supports it for full functionality. I haven’t had any issues with my devices, but it’s always a good idea to check your specs. Final Verdict: The Acer 7-in-1 USB-C Hub is an absolute game-changer for anyone looking to maximize their laptop’s connectivity. It’s a perfect solution for professionals, creatives, and anyone who needs to connect multiple devices without the clutter of extra adapters. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to simplify their tech setup while maintaining top-notch performance! If you're looking for a versatile, high-quality USB-C hub, this is the one to get.

Works as intended
I've been into emulators lately and this is a great HDMI out with charging capabilities to go with your high speed charging brick. Doesn't work for everything, but I can attest it works with the AYN Thor and a Google Pixel 8 Pro, and presumably higher end Pixels. Both have emulators and both come thru my TV just fine. Also works with Kodi. I tried to use wired controllers, but quickly figured I'm better off going Bluetooth on that route. I haven't tried file transfer or anything because all that mattered to me was getting it to the big screen. I'd rather have a docking stand for my needs, but freedom and flexibility isn't a bad thing for this device at a decent price and cheaper than a dock.

Versatile hub adds the ports my Mac lacks
This 7-in-1 USB C hub from Anker has made it easy to connect my laptop to all the devices I need. The HDMI port consistently outputs 4K video at 60Hz, while the USB 3.0 ports and SD/microSD slots transfer files quickly without errors. I appreciate that the pass-through charging allows me to power my MacBook while using the hub, and the unit itself feels solid and well made. It's truly plug-and-play, with no drivers to install, and it greatly expands the limited port selection on modern laptops. The only minor drawback is that the hub can get a little warm under heavy use, but overall it's a reliable, convenient accessory that I feel confident recommending.
