From the Figurehead range: 1BL1 Otranto, Otway, Orama (A,T)- troopship, hospital ship, AMC – excellent as a generic small liner/large transport 1BL2 Campania – good large troopship 2LB7 Circassia – Should make a fine IJN troopship 2JM2 Japanese war emergency tanker 2UM2 Auxilliary Oiler – should do as an alternate tanker 1BM1 Large Tramps – generic 1BM2 Medium Tramps – generic 1BM3 Small Tramps – generic 2BM4 Large Freighters – generic * all 4 models are pretty typical steel hulled freighter common from 1910-1945 1JM1 Colliers 1UM1 Colliers * You'll have to cut off a few kingposts but they make good larger generic merchants as well 1XM2 Sinking Tramps 1XM3 Sinking Colliers & Oilers *just for fun, really neat models

When is RECON this year. If my son is finished high school soccer I would certainly swing down for Friday and Saturday.

It's May 2-4th hmgssouth.com Hope to see you there.
McKinstry	18 Feb 2008 11:50 a.m. PST
That is an excellent time for me. I'd say it is likely. When are you thinking of running the game?
Inari7	18 Feb 2008 9:08 p.m. PST
I am pretty open to running the game almost anytime, let me know what is a good time for you. ……………..Doug
McKinstry	19 Feb 2008 6:57 a.m. PST
Friday night or the Saturday morning or afternoon sessions. I'll probably fly back Saturday night.

I will PM you when I post it. Do you want a historical game or a semi-balanced ficticous game?
McKinstry	23 Feb 2008 11:34 p.m. PST
Whatever works with what you have painted. I always felt stressed deciding on a convention game and then painting like a madman.
