My son told me he is buying me the Italian fleet. I also have from my daughter about four years ago a model of the Warspite in 350 scale. I think I have enough to keep me busy in January.

Looking forward to playing Cruel Seas in the New Year. Get the feeling I'll like this, if I do might go for British or I quite like the Soviets 'tubs'.
Of interest there is going to be an exhibiton soon at the Arts University Bournemouth on dazzle painting...

Got Brits and Germans as well as the starter and many reference books and getting more in the new year
Best scenario 'Downed German pilot and Polish MTB to the rescue'.
There was no such successful incident recorded in WW2 - not that the opportunity did not occur, but it is amazing how often the engines failed or there was a freak localised current/tidal anomaly which never allowed the MTB to close the gap
just saying

Got the Zerstorer type a from an old fashioned model shop with loads of old stock. Got to build it now. So much to do. The minesweeper is all but done. Now I am back I can give the fleet my full attention.

Fabulous game just played the first three scenarios. It also shows the germans had the best torpedo boats at that time. Massive hulls and armed to the teeth. Never sunk one of them all night. Next game will have a points value of 450 a side in a straight battle then following up with a scenario, to be decided.

Just started the Italian fleet, the resin ships are a bit bent used the hot water treatment, with a cold water finish. Worked perfectly. Built the corvette, looks stunning. The torpedo boats are all metal, going to give them a soapy wash.
