Considering a new WWI project. Plan to use GHQ, WTJ and Panzerschiffe.

I am thinking of using GHQ for the capital ships as I already have a number of them.

Apparently my supplier for discounted GHQ is no longer available.

Anyone have a reliable US vendor they can recommend.

TIA,

Aaron

I know of several but none discount.

Noble Knight Games. Not a large discount but a discount.

Also – GHQ has two sales each year. One is going on right now, 15% off any order of $100 USD or more. Use the discount code BATTLE when placing the order.

The other sale is usually a couple days around Black Friday, it has been 20% off the past couple years.

Try Dave at I-94 Enterprises. I know he discounts a certain amount at cons. If you give him a call, he might make you a deal.

The GHQ models look great, as you know. However, with their many parts, they are kind of fragile for ham-fisted gamers. I went with the Panzerschiffe models myself, and they are one piece resin castings – you can pour a whole box of them onto the table and they will not suffer any breakage. If you go with GHQ, I would recommend that you put them on bases so that the bases can be handled and not the models themselves.

Thanks all

I am very familiar with GHQ and Panzerschiffe as I have many of both.

My Pre-Dread fleets are almost all Panzersxhiffe. They are great for Span-AM and RJW and even WWI cruisers, but lack the detail I desire for WWI capital ships.

I base all my ships. Also plan to check out WTJ 1/2400.

I am in contact with i-94 and Nobel Knight.

I believe it was Warweb I use to order from, but appears they are gone.

Warweb – yes, they went out of business a while back (a year ago I think). I used to order from them myself but in the last year or so of operation they appeared to get more and more behind on their order to shipment time. (I had stopped ordering from them before that so I don't know myself)

As was noted earlier – GHQ is having a 15% off sale right now (BATTLE is the code word) and is available right here:

With shipping the 15% is a wash with local prices and I don't have to buy $100 USD at a time.

Personally, bang for the buck detail wise I prefer PF-CINC.

I find GHQ to be too detailed. Particularly as much of the detail is out of scale.

Goragrad,

Assume these are what you.are referring:

Anyone have comparison pics?

"Noble Knight Games. Not a large discount but a discount."

If you are doing a large purchase, around $1,000.00 USD they'll do a pretty decent discount.

I work with and recommend Noble Knight often and have been in contact.

Between GHQ, WTJ and Panzerschiffe we should be set.

Thanks
