Who makes Ironclads/ships etc that would work well with the Baccus or Adler 6mm ACW line. They could be metal, plastic or even paper (like Roman Seas) Thanks.

TVAG will be releasing a full line of card stock models in 6mm later this year. A dozen+ Classes have already been designed and built and are remarkably well detailed and authentic.

Researched and desgined by Chris Ferree, he is also working on a set of rules (currently be playtested using Ros Heroics 6mm figures).

I have a few photos I could share if you were to write ans ask for them.

There is no formal release date yet, but perhaps by the Fall. All the models, or at least a wide range, will be available before the rules are released, so that could be very soon if there was an expression of interest.

Irregular make (made?) at least a monitor in 6mm. I've got one somewhere at home.

There's been a plastic kit set of the battle between the Monitor and Merrimac (CSS Virginia) that's been in and out of production since the '60s. The Monitor is 1/210 scale, but the Virginia is scaled at 1/300. I've provided a link to an online hobby shop that should have it:

It sounds like TVAG has a promising new line of waterline card models to drool over! I'll be checking them out in the meantime.

And of course there is this little gem from a few days ago posted on TMP:
