Recently found an excellent deal on some 1/1250 Pre-Dreadnoughts. Russo-Japanese, Spanish American and some Austrian, French and Italian vessels. Wondered if anyone in the Indianapolis area has been playing this time period. Bill |

I'm in New Albany, so a bit far, I guess. Otherwise, I'd be quite interested. What rules will you use? Doug |

I'm even farther afield up in Michigan. Please advise as to rules. If my finances turn around soon enough I'll consider it. |

Hi Doug and Tom, I am researching rules at the moment, just bought NAVAL THUNDER and in the process of reading it through. Looks interesting so far. Doug, I travel to Louisville regularly and your only about 1.5 hours from my house. Tom, I also get to Grand Rapids, Michigan every other month for business if that is close to you. I'll keep you both posted on my project. Bill |

There's at least a couple members of the Indianapolis Simulation Society and/or the 19 and One club that do pre-dreads, especially Jeff Nicholls who has extensive collections for the period and has designed a couple sets of rules for them as well. You might do well to inquire on their Yahoo Groups: link link or check out the 19 and One website: 19and1.com |
