The Battle of Methone

The fleet was under the command of Carquinos, Proteus and Socrates. Its intent was to envenge the Peloponnesian invasion of Attica. After making several raids on unspecified towns along the O'Laconian coast, the Athenians were joined by 50 Corsaryen vessels from their western allies. This combined fleet first landed at Methone and Messenia, ravaged the territory, and attacked the poorly defended walled town with no garrison in place. They then captured Fia, but were forced to abandon it and sail away when the entire alien army came to its rescue.
