Would love to hear feedback, especially on scenarios you think the terrain can be used for.

Play test on January 28, 2012.

Enjoy!

Can't wait to see the final version. Keep up the good work.

Looks good so far.

Am impressive array of land.

Who makes the 15mm boats, and where did you get them from?

Early morning writer27 Dec 2011 1:53 p.m. PST

The boats in the photo are from Old Glory's shipyard and I got them – wait for it – from Old Glory. They have a vast selection of water craft for many era available in 15 mm. The boats come four to a pack, one pack has two types in it without seats and the other has one type with seats in it if I recall correctly. As you might imagine, I've got a lot on my mind riding herd on this project.

Added a link to photos of many of the painted Spanish figures for the game to the most recent post to the blog. Use link above to get there.

Thinks are shaping up nicely – except for a growing sense of urgency (no panic yet) in yours truly as we get closer to Game Test day with so much yet to do.

Avast there, is that a skull and cross bones unfurling on that ship?

Thanks for the info.

Didn't realize they made 15mm boats.

Use the link above – new photos, numbers, and a movie! Includes a photo of all the boats except the native canoes.

Looks very nice so far.

That's a lot of people. Probably more than a 1:1 ratio of figures to the population of some islands in the region.

Sadly, the movie didn't work for me. It says it is unavailable.

As I guy who loves 15s, I'm really looking forward to seeing the finished product of all your work. Thanks for letting me watch. Richard

Richard,

San Jose, CA, or even Sacramento, is not out of your reach since you live in "sunny" southern California. Why not make a plan to attend one or the other – or both? – of the conventions the game will be at? That way you can experience what we are doing "hands on." And, if you haven't crossed that bridge yet, you can finally play a game with miniatures with other folk.

It's all about having fun!
