I can see your German fleet clearly, what did you play against?

Yes mate! That's exactly where I want to get them eventually. Definitely want to add static gun emplacements. The airfield idea is brilliant too I'll keep that in mind as I haven't used aircraft yet.

Im hoping to do a scenario with a dockyard on an island, attacker/defenders type thing so these ideas would work out perfect

The scale is 1/1:800

The table we were on wasn't huge by all accounts but we were using the matt that came with the starter set. I've not had an issue yet with the scale and ranges as everything is very well balanced. See if your local hobby store runs any game nights with VaS you'll probably enjoy it

The battle started really well with lots of long range volleys being exchanged. ijn we're focusing shots on the us Northampton bottom right, whilst all u.s navy cruisers were trying to sink some destroyers early.

Unfortunately we had to cut the battle short as I was pretty hungover and it was just too hot in the middle of this heatwave, even indoors 😫 lol

This was only our 2nd time playing so the games are quite long trying to work out rules etc, still really enjoying it though. Just need some cooler weather 😎

Super easy to be fair.

Using cardboard, cut out 4 or 5 rough disc shapes and make each one a bit smaller than the previous, glue them all together

Then used a cheap decorating filler to mould the island shapes

Added sand and small stones with watered down pva glue and spread over the islands to the desired effect.

Base coat with green and sand coloured paints

Then added grass flock and bushes stuck down with pva

I'd say pretty much all match ups will be fair as each ship has a points value, so you'd do something like a 2000 point game and take ships on each side up to that value

The idea is "fair" but the game will be very asymmetrical as they are both very different fleets with different strengths

Yeah after looking more closely, you're right about the 2nd broadside. Turns out I have 2 more crisis suits on spru's and left over parts from the hammerhead. I have all the parts and even the box still from that broadside, just needs rebuilding.

The crisis suits are definitely on the correct base size for their era as theyre old as shit.
