This just arrived from Brigade Miniatures. It will be my Fort McHenry. I don't really foresee square riggers dueling in inner city Baltimore, but...

I'm glad you like it! It is 2 layers of 1/8" foam with adhesive backing that I got from a craft store. Do you have Walmarts in England? How far...

Thanks chaps, I think! So far all are Ares or Ares conversions, but the Schooners will be Langton products. This should go a long way to spoiling the...

Very nice!

I'm jealous !!! :envy::envy:

Have a good game Roberto, and do try and take a few photos of your game. With lockdown we are all starved of gaming pictures. Rob.

Thank you all for such a warm welcome. Hopefully this weekend there shall be naval skirmish time on our table. I'm planning to setup "Aganst the...

Worth noting thaty in the first edition of BWAS 1793, Winfield considered the Purisima Concepcion and Meregildos classes "near sisters," so while...

Just got around to putting these ship base caeds into place and discovered a cunning idea of Dobbs which I shall copy on all my other ships. He may...

Looks as if Henry is going to be our saviour for the forseeable future then gentlemen. I intend to just get on with games and ignore the historixal...

Hi Calvin and welcome from the beautiful Hudson River Valley! My youngest daughter is a special education teacher in Philadelphia -- I very much...

Chris, IIRC they cranked things up a little on Mahonesa in response to the previous undersize, the pendulum may have swung a little too far. BTW,...

I think a botched measurement process made most of the new releases ~15-20% undersize. SdM is at least in part accounted for by the Greenwich...

Hi guys, my comment about the frigate seems to have been taken skew wiff, what I meant was Henry.’s model was a bit shorter than Ares version, where...

There has been a great deal of discussion "behind the scenes" that I and I guess others have been involved in. At one point there were firm choices...

I thought the conclusion we reached at the time was that someone had scaled them to 1/1200 rather than 1/1000?

It is many moons since I saw it too. Maybe a revisit is in order. Rob.

Apart from the starter pack, all ships are sold individually Calvin. Rob.

Chris, I can’t remember anyone complaining about the size of the frigates. It’s always been the 74s and 112s that’s too small. Quite a lot too small....

We received our second shot this afternoon. As I write, it has been a bit over 8 hours. The wife is experiencing chills and a headache already. My...

I haven't seen The Court Jester . I'll have to track it down. I did see Danny Kaye in his last Broadway show "Two by Two" (which was also Richard...

Perhaps read through the Solo Campaigns under Campaign Discussions for an idea of the kind of adventures that you favor. That will guide you toward...

Chris/Vol thanks a lot, the pics are a big help. When I get ships boats I can retire my Greek Penteconters, they are almost old enough to draw their...

Ah I was just referring to ship packs.

Welcome aboard, Calvin, from the top of the Chesapeake Bay. What do you mean by expansions? There are a number of house rules that have come...

Novel way of doing it Bill. We just had a clock on the wall. I timed our 15 from the time the jab went in rather than the time we got to the waiting...

Thank you everyone for all the helpful advice! A couple more questions, are there any specific expansions that people prefer (IE for ships of the...
