I'm not scrapping this blog, even after this long time between posts, but there are changes afoot. I have cleaned up the links on the right side of this blog a bit - still a lot more to do especially with the explosion of 3D printing resour…
I am really looking forward to seeing the journey towards these being assembled and painted. I bought into these too! I thought it would be great to be able to run a campaign with only 11-12 ships total. What rules are you thinking about us…
Welcome back, and a great project to kick off your return. Welcome back to blogging! The Haitian stuff looks interesting. I wish Spithead miniatures had a better way of showing their figures. Thanks - The Spithead web site is gone, but they…
But which to read first is the question...😀 Nice collection - looking mighty nautical! :) I have read Thucydides' The Peloponnesian Wars three times in my life, once as a kid, again as a young adult and the last time in my 40's. It was tha…

Yes, definitely minis! The game box will come with some, and there are plans to expand the range.I've deliberately not gotten too involved in Aeronef. The period and technologies involved should produce quite different flavours, and I can't…
Naval wargaming, tactics, and strategy; news of the hobby and my personal projects Many thanks for the kind words! Mine is not exclusively naval (although it looks like at te moment!) but there is new battle report posted based on a game I
One nice thing about the pre-dreads is that almost every ship has a different look.Many have four stacks; lots have three; quite a few have two; and there are those with both one and five stacks . . . not to mention the ones with smokestack…
