Used the Post Captain scenario to play the above.
Found here: Platoonforward.blogspot.com
Know my flags look weak but want something removable so I can use the ships for other countries. Any suggestions? Thanks Joe |

I drilled an angled hole into the stern of my ships. I glued paper flags around a piece of wire. I can drop the pin into the hole and pull it out when I'm done. Drilling at an angle is key. |

Cool stuff, Joe. Do you ever play/ponder playing boarding actions? I think that would be cool too. V/R,

LOL I couldn't figure out when the carrier Enterprise fought a ship called the Flambeau! Now I get it! D'oh! |

Sundance, I'll see you and raise you. I thought it was about a Star Trek game and couldn't figure out why anyone would want to put a flag on a starship. |

Thank you for the comments. I did think about the starship enterprise after I posted. I guess I could have had Capt Kirk in command!
Thanks for the flag ideas. Mwindsorfw- what size of hole do you drill?
Jack,
Yes and Post Captain has rules for those. I think next time I do a boarding action I will use Donnybrook to resolve.
Thanks again Joe |
