1/300 scale Barges from I-94 Enterprises ready for a variety of uses in coming Cruel Seas Scenarios.

Those are awesome…..and the ones up front are carrying enough life preservers for the whole damn convoy! ;) :)))

FlyXwire, Thank You kindly for the comment. Could be a load of tires, could be a load of wire bales, but certainly enough lumber to give a Old Salt in the water an assist. The large barges I find hold a GHQ PzIII or a Flak 88mm easily in their open holds. I think we can have some fun with these rascals on The Cruel, Cruel Seas!

How do you order these? I looked at your site but only see planes

Fitz
Those look great! Thanks for the find. See some Danube action in the future

Badger22,
Happy to be of any help! I also ordered the ship under construction on the slipway but appropriately, it is "still in the yards" awaiting workup.

Joe,
Glad you like them. I have a host of ideas where they can be of use. The first is just to have them anchored in a port area effectively being terrain for the forces to dodge as they try to get at one another. When GM ing I always like a few collisions in the game. Partisan Q ships is another idea and of course targets or objectives.

Joe Legan04 May 2019 10:09 a.m. PST

Those are both great ideas. I saw the ship under construction. Have my eye on the port extension. Glad to find someone in the US making stuff.

Joe

Joe,
I agree that seeing some domestic items is a great thing. Hopefully this line will expand to include a much wider selection. Perhaps if we both sent them emails with our suggestions we might nudge things along a bit.

Joe Legan05 May 2019 11:59 a.m. PST

Good idea. Have dealt with them before. Seems like a nice guy. I would like to see some port stuff and maybe a kfk

badger2207 May 2019 7:56 a.m. PST

Order already recieved, these guys are cool. Now if they would just make R boats and Fairmailes

Joe Legan07 May 2019 9:13 a.m. PST

Fairmile Bs would be great. Warlords raum is nice but the guns are all off and it is pricey even for them

Fitzovich Supporting Member of TMP07 May 2019 4:05 p.m. PST

Badger and Joe, Both great ideas! I'm leaning more towards fishing boats and other types of civilian coastal craft. Speed boats, row boats, trawlers,, yard craft and alike.
