The Sand Pebbles. Even played a game based on the movie at a convention once.

The Sand Pebbles. The book and movie are both very enjoyable.

Is there a list of NavalWars from this period (it can't be many).

Sand Pebbles for me, though I did enjoy the Japanese Battle of Tsushima movie.

rmaker01 May 2025 8:37 p.m. PST

"The Battle of the Japan Sea" is the movie Tgerritsen refers to. Excellent model work.

I also like "African Queen".

Lucky Lady, with the rumrunner "naval battle" at the end… ;-)

I think The African Queen is the only I've seen. And I don't remember much of it.
