We generally use modified mats faced with transperseal for shows which speeds up the action by dispensing with chips totally, and the whiteboard...

I would echo this sentiment. I have the good fortune to attend conventions where Firelock further supports their games with tournaments. The lead...

Stick one up if you like Dobbs and I will close this thread. I suggest that it ends at more than 300. Rob.

After a few more ships, I'm going to be in the same situation John. It is going to be one new ship in, one old one out. With regard to the Aries...

I just punched in on ebayuk, sails of glory starter sets. 3 results for the US, 2 for Germany and 1 for Australia. None for the UK. Cheapest price...

Rob, could a new version of this pole be posted for comparison?

For how many years have they been unavailable? Lt. Bush

Oh, I am sure of it! Let us thank the Lord that we are not talking about the French Fleet... Lt. Bush

This is a good point. In fact, I do own a couple of hundred pewter miniatures which I used in the Pen&Paper roleplaying context. But these were...

I can report that as a newbie I had no troubles of finding Starter Packs and Ship Packs, even most Accessories with the (important) exception of Ship...

Hi Rob I don't know if you remember the scenario it's called the Blockade everything is fine until the wind clocks round and hits the French on the...

By far the best support I've experienced is by Firelock games. Sure, skirmish level pirate games are bound to attract lots of players but their...

At least that way you can point the blame a your superiors, especially if that superior happened to die in the action! The failure for the French...

I agree totaly with you John. If Ares concentrated upon the Starter sets, basics, and ancillary chits and mats, anyone wanting to expand their...

Henry has revised his sail and mast set several times and it is much better than the original free version. I also found another set specifically for...

:wink::wink::wink: I'm just playing scenario 4 or 5, can't remember which but My French line of 4 ships had to turn away from the wind and are in the...

I'm afraid Lt Bush is right, there will be no new players because the core starter sets are pretty much unavailable, you can still get ships but...

Not bad for starters Lt. Bush. Since this Poll was instituted I suspect that if you conducted a new one you would find the results somewhat...

I am ever hopeful that a third printing of the shipmats will be forthcoming. I know I still require them simply because each of my ships has its own...

Thanks for your evaluation of the game and its base. Some of these shortcomings have been mentioned before, but not quite so comprehensively in one...

Just having picked up the game, I have - recklessly - bought 20 ships (inclusive of the 4 of the Starter Set). I have confined myself to British...

But an entire Starter Set for just four Ship Mats that you need is a steep price... Lt. Bush

96 Pages of sea-related beverages. I say! Thankfully, the deck of the ship is careening in the swell to support everyone standing straight! Let...

Some thoughts from the perspective of someone new to SoG but not new to gaming: 1. Appeal of SoG: Why did I buy the game? The ships looked good...

Argo, eine Frage und Vermutung: Kann es sein, daß wir uns 2022 auf der Spielemesse in Essen getroffen haben? Ich habe da SoG und eine Reihe...

Argo, ist dies ein Con oder ein einfaches Treffen? Ich bin ab und zu in Bonn und D'Dorf ist auch nicht allzu weit entfernt. Lt. Bush

Gentlemen, I thank you all for this kind welcome. I am most obliged. Your illustrous company makes me feel like the young midshipman again,...

:happy: We're just south of the border (Mason Dixon) and off to Burn's Night (just east of our Nottingham, Rob).

It had to be cold steel and muskets. I didn't have enough ships for a "circle the wagons" tactic.:happy:
