The folks at Spartacon were kind enough to allow me to use several hundred square feet of their floor space to run a game of 28mm PreDreadnoughts, take a look if you are interested link

The gray concrete floor was rather more believable than the polished hardwood of my wife's dance studio!

Always liked pre-dreadnoughts.

Oh, HELL yes!

Grey seas suggest heavy seas to come; the 'survivors' will not have an easy ride home.

I even envisioned the maint doors in the floor as possible rocks for gun forts, should you like to try again, say, forcing a strait. ;->=

As for 'OK, OK,. Maybe I should stop' line of thinking, the thing about trying to force a strait is that the van tends to bog down under fire, with following ships 'bunching up.'

So, no, more, MORE!!!

WOW! The only 'down-side' to this, other than not being their in person, is that there were no side by side photo's of some of the ships.
I would have loved to see some close up's of these individual models and perhaps a ruler lying next to them for 'scale'.

This must have been (it seems wrong to say Blast when speaking of sinking ships but..) a blast to run! BULLY!!

Part time gamer: Do look through the rest of the blog; he's got sitting on tables, and WIP's here and there.

Almost quitting time, so I'll have to leave the searching to you.

Part time gamer, Try this link

You have to scroll down a bit but the builds of most of the models are there (along with a lot of other craziness)

I plan on selling most of them through TVAG in the near future and will be posting more builds as I start replacing them
