Great looking game Fitz. I like those plastic ships. As-is they are fine but a nice simple paint job would make them really look the part. Nile is an interesting scenario, it makes for more fun if you allow the French some mobility. I remember playing in a scenario as one of the French admirals and the L'Orient (under my command) took a magazine hit early and exploded. Can't make these things up. The game looked alot of fun! Thanks for sharing.

Prince Albert, Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated. It did run pretty well. I need to fine tune the rules a bit to speed up an already fast play rule set. One of the players mentioned he could 3D print some 8 sided stands for me. Some very basic paint jobs and I will have a nice little fleet on the cheap that can serve for any battle.
