A couple of months ago I started a post asking about the availability of very simple folded paper galleys. In the end I made my own by finding images online. I've since used them in a few games, and a friend of mine took a few pics, which are here: link One of the other players said, "I swore years ago that I would never play a game using pieces of paper, but I enjoyed this." Based on that (and the fun I had) I would say the paper models ended up working well to test the game and as a stopgap until I have the time to buy and paint some "proper figs".

Paper fleets seem to work better than paper soldiers. I like them both though. Your fleets look great. Do you have an online version of your rules? |

Thanks Dynaman, Who asked this Joker, I'm happy with how it turned out. The fleets were pretty easy to make and I could fit a couple dozen on a sheet of paper. As for rules, I don't have them online yet, but I probably will. They're actually a variant of DBA 3.0, modified to represent (my take) on ancient fleet-level naval combat. I got the idea from the Hail Agrippa modification of Hail Caesar, but wanted something that plays more quickly. Thanks for the comments. |
