I'm organzing the various boxes with my 1/600 ACW ships and I made the mistake of counting them. ONE HUNDRED AND SIX HULLS! And that's not counting tugs, torpedo boats and barges. Kits from Thoroughbred Models, TCS, Peter Pig, Bay Area Yards plus a few scratch builts for stuff that no one else made (at the time). If admitting you have a problem is the first step on the road to recovery…then I'm just fine! (And I'm wondering…just a few more double-enders and Itasca class gunboats and I'm done, right?) So, am I alone in this? How big is your fleet? |

Well, today it's zero, but I am buying a friend's 1:600 collection in a couple of weeks and diving into ACW naval gaming. So, I will have 16 ships, plus miscellaneous piers, wharves, and add-ons, plus shore forts, etc. |

Wow!
My fleet is more like a squadron or a detachment of a squadron, compared to yours G-Dog;
I have two Confederate Ironclads; Albemar (sp?) and Neuse plus several Union "Tinclads" that fought in th Coastal Waters of North Carolina.
Some day, I'll run a game with them.
They sure do make some fine ships.

Well, I've got 43 immediately visible, almost all European, and all from BAY or scratchbuilt. There's another 20 or so around somewhere. |

I have about 15 or 16 Union and Confed combined. My friends also have a mix that adds about 8 or 9 so we can do some interesting scenarios. |
| Pictors Studio | 10 Apr 2009 5:47 p.m. PST |
I have 15 ships total for both sides. I also have some fortifications all in 1/600th scale. |

I wear a size 13 (US)….
Oh, FLEET. |
| The G Dog | 10 Apr 2009 7:16 p.m. PST |
And I see that Thoroughbred has added some new hulls. I could replace my old Peter Pig Choctaw and I don't have the Missouri yet…
…maybe I do have a problem.

I think I am around 30 so far, they are all Thoroughbred Models. I plan to pick up about 10 or so more come Historicon.

I have only seven 1/600 (1 Reb and 6 Yankee), but had around 70 1/1200 including scratch-builts before I sold them off. |
| David Manley | 10 Apr 2009 10:14 p.m. PST |
About 120, and a similar number in 1/1200. |
 McKinstry | 10 Apr 2009 10:32 p.m. PST |
Comfortably over 100 but in 1/2400, that's not so bad sounding. |

Dave writes, About 120, and a similar number in 1/1200 Why am I not surprised?  |
| Force of Nature | 12 Oct 2009 7:50 a.m. PST |
A little over 100. All are 1/600 Thoroughbred or BAY models. About 90% are Thoroughbred. Force |

about 15 in 1/600. about 15 in 10mm |
