The Arkansas is just perfect to include with tabletop land games! Or to kitbash into a VSF aeronef =^,^= |

The Monitor was a very poor design. Somebody with that many resources at hand should have built a better ship. |

Voted for the Monitor. All the ironclads were poor designs at first. But the Monitor got my vote for being the first ship with a revolving turret. |

"But the Monitor got my vote for being the first ship with a revolving turret." No, that was the RN's HMS Trusty of 1860 |

I also went with the Monitor. More than 30 patents involved in the design. I recommend the book "The Monitor Chronicles" which is the collected letters of the Third Engineer on the Monitor. |
