To keep it simple, I just drilled a hole using my electric drill and the smallest bit it came with. No fuss, no muss, worked just fine.

My 2 orders arrived in Hiroshima this evening. My set had 5 of 12 broken, 106A,B,C & 105A&C. The other box is for my friend, so will know later when he gets the 'some good news, some bad news'.

It sounds like the damage was done during the initial packaging stage, so the lack of quality control at the factory allowed the boxed sets to be shipped to the warehouse. The warehouse had no...

I've just bought my 4th 'wine gift box' at Costco. Wanted to be sure I had enough space for the Wave 2 ships. I kept 12 of the 16 I got in the KS (4 to my friend) and getting all 12 of W2 plus...

I was on Amazon and saw a pewter goblet as a "suggested other item", which took me to the Thomas Dale site, where I found these with a sailing theme.

Pricey, but nice!

Well, they aren't really that unique, so 10% higher than the online discounted prices for the other ships. Plus, with Wave 2 coming soon, there are going to be more than enough retail ships...

The 3 bottle gift box was wine sold at Costco, not Costco wine, but, yes, quite decent. Especially nice, since you can repurpose the wooden boxes for storage. I'll be picking up another two boxes...

Towers and small forts can be done with some clay, but the village models at Brigade might be good for a more realistic port. 9381

I also deleted my direct link and emailed them a few days ago from the contact button on the KS page. They emailed me my direct link again this morning, so a timely response.

This also seems like another non-issue. If the picture of the ship isn't good enough to identify it, then it really doesn't matter which ship you have on the base (they even have the same model &...

Unless you have lots of disorganized players with little space, I don't see the problem. One deck to the left of the ship mat, the other to the right of the other, easy enough. Besides, there are...

That random draw rule can be found on p.33 in the center column, however, I would have thought that you'd just go by the intended direction of the dark bordered card, since direction and veer are...

That was from the main KS page during the campaign.

From the KS: "We expect the HMS Victory Special Ship Pack to retail at approximately $25/$28."

The shipping this time will be much simpler 'all 12' vs 'all kinds of combinations of all kinds of things', but it only makes sense if you want all 12 ships and live where online shipping isn't free....

The fact that they are going with online prices is rather nice and the international shipping is lower than online, so for those wanting a full set, I'd say it is perfect. Since it is only full...

Great minds think alike, so when playing both sides you should have some intuition as to how you're playing both sides, but short turn memory issues and preplanning work well together to give some...

There is an orange zone directly in the back, so isn't that running?

From Wiki: A boat is sailing close hauled (also called beating or working to windward) when its sails are trimmed in tightly...

BGG posted about an upcoming iOS game, Naval Tactics: Captains of the Spanish Main. Spotted something somewhat relevant in the promo video, "Plan three moves ahead."

Actually, I believe those are pre-orders for the reprint.

This is the relevant chart from that page.

Costco provides lots of gaming accessories, including chocolate, craft beer, wine, cheese and storage boxes.

Costco came to Hiroshima just a year ago. Around $38 (¥3838) for 3 bottles of wine and a storage case.

A coincidence...I don't think so. I think we've found the template for the size of the bases!
