This page is designed to provide informations on the historical battle in which the infamous pirate Blackbeard captured his best known ship, La Concorde de Nantes, later known as the Queen Anne's Revenge. Since there are currently no POTC sources about this battle, the battle doesn't deserve it's own article, and that's why all informations about the battle will be posted here. If some reference to the battle appear in some future Pirates of the Caribbean product, this page will be made into a real article. \\Captain Uskok// &mdash; Ahoy! 15:45, December 24, 2011 (UTC) ______________________________________________________________________________________________

Fought in November 1717 between the French crew led by Pierre Dosset and Blackbeard's crew, the battle ended with Blackbeard's victory. After the battle, Blackbeard took the French ship as his new flagship, starting his reign of terror in the New World.
