Siege and Assault Report from the 1718 Campaign
Dispatches describe an Imperial force under Melazzo attacking fortified positions at Half Moon and Fort de St Paperin. A night assault succeeds in capturing tents and cannons near Paldimo while enemy attempts to strengthen lines toward the sea. Reports also note contingents from Naples and Rogea, and a broader Allied stance in Sicily and the Baltic region with political moves toward Quadruple Alliance terms.
