I will be presenting the battle of Trafalgar at Dundracon at the Santa Clara Marriott in Santa Clara, California, this coming Saturday, February 18th.

I will be using my own modification of "Form on the Admiral's Wake," a great set of rules for convention play. Only takes about 10 minutes to teach and then you can spend most of your time fighting it out.

I will have 60 ships of the line on the table with eight players. I use the Sails of Glory ships mounted on stands that can be placed into sabots that have the ship names on them. This is so I can swap ships out for other battles of the era.

If you're coming to the convention and looking for having a blast on Saturday, consider checking out my game.

Easily my most favorite naval wargame ruleset. I hope the game was fun for all participants. I plan to be laying with the author this March at HMGS Cold Wars.
