Hi guys,

Just noticed an Osprey ad in the latest Wargames Soldiers and Strategy featuring "Fighting Sail – Fleet Actions 1775 – 1815" Rules by Ryan Miller. Due out in May 2015.

Does anyone have any details on these, such as what scale they'll be using?

Thanks!

I saw that too on my Kindle. Haven't seen any information about it but I'm cautiously optimistic about it.

I hope I'm not intruding – I saw this question and thought I would respond.

I designed the game with 1/1200 ship models, though you can easily use 1/2400 just be cutting all distances in half.

The game is meant to be played with fleets of 6-12ish models per side, although a minigame is included to fight one-on-one frigate duels.

I hope you all enjoy the game!

Ryan,
I'm looking forward to the rules. Thanks. I wish you good luck with your rules
Be safe
Rory
