Activity Stream

Ok thanks for your clarification, thought the fire marker might come off damage track. All clear now, many thanks for your time.

Hi Ken. Fire damage markers on the ship Damage track is not removed, but on completion of the extinguishing action, the action marker and fire...

Overnight I have added more sails.

Dredging the bottom of the barrel now shipmates .Henley.

Now I really need to look mine out Bill. Rob.

According to Winfield and Wikipedia, you have Canada 2' too long, at 170' it comes out about 1/710. Not much better of a match but a little. ...

Eric, somewhere along the line while this thread was originally targeted on frigates and making production-viable clusters out of the historical USN...

Only saw this late to the party - now where have I heard that before???? A enjoyable AAR, Anthony. :beer:

I believe that I read that Independence was a disappointment as a 74 due to her lower gundeck clearance and was razeed pretty quickly into a...

I am aware of that. One of the advantages to the larger spar decked frigates was having higher clearance for main deck gun ports from the waterline....

My eyes are going too! Hence the move to 28mm. Many years ago I was in a year long campaign game in 15mm ACW, so I have many 100's of figures in...

True, but IIRC Winfield made it sound like the early USN SOL's were even worse than normal. Then again, why bother, it looks like it'll be a cold day...

My two schooners move on a pace today. Rob.

They look great Bill. My ACW troops are all 15mm but I have not painted in that scale since my eyes went. Must have them out for a game shortly. ...

That's the sort of party I like. No clockwork parrots Paul.:hatsoff: Rob.

I see. Well, you best get cracking then. You've got a lot of ships laid up that need final fitting out! :wink:

Ok great, thanks for your time and trouble, much clearer now.

Each turn, you plan a move using the blue cards. If, at the start of a turn, the pointer shows that you are in the red arc instead of the green or...

Thanks Paul. I'm looking forward to playing the next scenario. I have really enjoyed reading and I have been inspired by all of the AARs submitted...

Haha, no these are for all of those ships I have already painted.

Will do.

Very nice, Vol. You've created a healthy supply for future endeavors. I've taken a break from ship model building to focus on creating some...

Thanks Rob -- I'm new to Sharp Practice but the appeal is great in that you can play many different musket periods without a great investment for...

Lets stay in touch -- perhaps we can coordinate a Sharp Practice encounter that weekend. Please let me know when your games are scheduled at...
