Sorry, that should be conversion. Covertly done perhaps? Am I unmasked by Freudian slip. Here come Mossad, the CIA, KGB and MI6. Hi guys –  ! James |

Wow, very well done. What are you using for your bases and what rules do you use? |
| olicana | 14 May 2008 10:44 a.m. PST |
The bases are 4mm balsa with a paper / thin card cover on both sides. The 'sea' is thick acrylic paint (it comes in a big pot sold as extra thick) quite expensive at £10.00 GBP a throw, but you will base 100+ vessels with it. I am using Fleet of Battle. A Field of Battle based rule set. FoB is by Piquet. The rules for Fleet of Battle are available free through the Yahoo group Piquet in the files section. |
