As the campaign-competition has already kicked off here are the first 5 scenarios as table layouts.

The narrative can be found on the blog as usual here:

Very nice looking.

It is these sorts of productions which have led me (tentatively) to consider Age of Sail. Agree with Shagnasty – very nicely done indeed.
Nice blog too jocknroll.

Nice miniatures, great shorelines, and nice photography all help make these games immensely appealing.

Played two. One on the table.
If I am lucky, will get the rest done this week.
Then the league table gets published :)

Three done now. Coming up on the blog as I complete the AARs and process the pix.

Lovely and pleasantly unusual. recently saw the film De Ryuter, this kind of thing, if locals were interested in naval stuff could generate yet another urge to do! aie.

Receiving precise written orders from the commanders and then trying to enact them so as not to disappoint has been great fun. The first two games are up on the blog now. I have two more in the can and two to finish next week. Having 6 players is just about manageable but means I have been doing more gaming in the last two weeks than in the last two years.
