I've seen the completed cover. The index of ships, the printers proof etc. DEADLY WATERS should be released by CLASH OF ARMS in time for Christmas as planned. |

Is the first release the Russian convoys, early Atlantic or the Gibraltar runs? |

I don't know for sure, but the playtest in which I've been involved were the Gib-UK convoys. Rudy, did you mean size of models used, or what sort of escorts ? From the sessions I've seen, a really neat set of rules, which absolutely allow the escort commander to use 'real world' tactics, with the advantages and the disadvantages relevant to those. I'll buy 'em post-hast

Escort size. Much has been done about capital ships and a lot about my level the PT/MTB boats but not so much about the mid-level operations. |
Ed Mohrmann  | 01 Nov 2009 5:46 p.m. PST |
Rudy, the games in which I've been involved had a typical escort of DD's, Sloops, Corvettes and we actually had in one case a CVE. The convoy itself included merchies of various sorts, mostly < 10K tons, and were of the 'slow' variety. One game had an 'implied' 'Heavy' escort (we could 'see' dim largish shapes waaaaaaay out on the horizon). |

Can the game be played as a solo game? |
Mal Wright  | 05 Nov 2009 8:49 p.m. PST |
Yes Louie N. Much of my testing was solo. When I submitted it to my test group there were several who could only test it solo. It worked really well as a solo and was just as exciting. |

I for one,have been waiting what appears a long time for these rules to come out :) Glad their smoke is on the horizon!! |
| spacehulker | 07 Nov 2009 5:31 a.m. PST |
oh and what size of models would really be the best?? |
Mal Wright  | 07 Nov 2009 8:29 p.m. PST |
I use 1:3000 scale myself. But any scale can be used. You could even make some real life scale replica's and play in a very large, empty car park!  |
