Has anyone tried this? I want to have some cool cannon effects alongside my ships.

Careful there, monsieur

The Trinidad has more decks, but L'Orient and its ilk are longer.

I don't think it necessarily has the over the top gore and action of Spartacus - the aesthetic is more realistic, methinks; people killed by splinters, not cannonballs, etc.

(Not that there was...

Ooooooo The L'Orient is a pretty pretty one. And Royal Sovereign!

I would prefer Spanish before Americans simply because the game is "Napoleonic Wars" not War of 1812

Thanks for al the suggestions mates! I'll let you know Friday what I came up with!

The first episode is online for FREE (Legally) if anyone wants to check it out. I thought it was quite good.

Howdy, fellow seamen:

I'm finishing up my undergrads in Classics and History, and while playing SOG the other day it occurred to me a good avenue to connect the two would be Neoclassicism in the...

I feel like the game is abstract enough that Victory's carronades will be factored into its "normal" broadsides rating.

I think it's important to remember too that much of the game is balanced around standard rules, where surrendering through losing enough boxes is the only way to lose. Fires and Floods add a lot of...

Fantastic Job!

The HMS Bellerophon, surely. Quite a legendary vessel. I'd also want at least one of each class, if I were limited in my budget.

The ships are fragile damage-wise, yes, but they also maintain the ability to dole out punishment to the bitter end. In my games so far, we noticed that the high high burden of most SOLs meant that...

Apparently they built full-scale ships for this, so here's hoping it's good!

Yeah, it'd be interesting to see some Xebecs eventually as well.

I'm powering through it now, trying to collect 100% of everything. Lots o fun.

I think I will contact them. The super-glue I'm using isn't really doing the job...

So here's the real question we should all be asking? Where are the Spanish!? I want my Santissima Trinidad, Ares!

Sadly, it was the mainmast. I'd be less upset if it wasn't one of the exclusives, and I could just go out and buy a replacement.

Doh! That makes more sense. So some of them are tricolour, others white?

Is anyone else having severe issues with the flags? I found that several of my ships, when I opened the box up, had white flags rather than their proper form! Plus my HMS Juno was broken at the mast,...
