What rules to you intend to use? |

What scale are your ships? |
| Murvihill | 23 Aug 2026 11:01 a.m. PST |
Scale is 1:2400. Rules are homemade, called "Meatheads With Missiles". 1" is 10NM, one turn is 8 hours. |

I was on Uganda in it's previous occupation as a school cruise ship. I may have been on Hecla as well, not too sure. Was that a survey ship ? |
| Murvihill | 23 Aug 2026 1:31 p.m. PST |
The three H ships were survey vessels, but they were used as ambulances during the campaign. |

Where did the miniatures come from, especially the merchants and auxiliaries? I have some of the ships in 1/1200 and 1/1250, but i think smaller would be the way to go. |

Endurance, Bristol and Intrepid were 3d printed. Most of the warships are commercial (Superior, GHQ, Viking Forge IIRC). I made most of the RFA and commercial ships out of basswood. |
