Ethereal Gothic Chapter 2, Turn 2 The ongoing story of my Space:1889/Masque of the Red Death PBEM Game. I've included a short Dramatis Personae at the end of...
Greetings All! This being my first post, I just wanted to let everyone know that I've uploaded a file called "Real Life Adventurer", about the Baron James...
Fellow SGoMers, There was a post on TMP about another line of 15/18mm VSF figures coming out from Regiment Games (http://regimentgames.com). This line is...
Stuart, Very nice work. How did you create the Aphid, did you build it sandwich style, or more plank on frame? What are the dimensions? Do you have any...
Stu's gorgeous figs got me thinking. Has anyone worked up Stats for a 'mini-Aphid'? The Aphid's stats, and the map in 'Cloudships and Gunboats', clearly shows...
... Gorgeous work! I especially like the gunboat (it's a not actually an Aphid, however, correct?). Are these a 'range' to be offered for sale, or just your...
Checking out the game tech photos again It occurred to me, has anyone fought any Sky Galleons battles between Zepplins and Aerial Gunboats? I'm especially...
... The cover of 'Ironclads and Etherflyers' is a perfect example of a ship that is supposed to be aphid-like, but is too small and has too few guns. -- ...
... They die like the dogs they are vs. the brits, the martains are a better fight. I ran a campaign some years ago and there were players who used only zeps....
Although 'earther' ships generally have the edge, the Martians can do ok if they can manage to board which we tend to think of as the main martian tactic given...
... I designed that vessel so I'll be happy to answer these questions. It was designed for the tripods to be able to fire in flight. I did stats for it, I'll ...
I never worry about balance by the numbers, and I'm always willing to invent my own ships-and not necessarily pay close attention to the rules governing those....
... a 'mini-Aphid'? The Aphid's stats, and the map in 'Cloudships and Gunboats', clearly shows a vessel with five guns, but many images of a 'British Gunboat'...
... David, you beat me to it! Yes, Paul, I noticed this flaw some time ago and figured that the best way to handle it was to assume that the illustrations...

... Excellent:) Was it intended as a SGOM vessel, based on Mars like the Hamburg, or was it intended for the German Aerial Fleet on Earth? -- "...How shall a...
Hi Mike, The cutter is a conversion from a Disney Atlantis Mini-sub. All I did was trim off the wheels and add the curved legs on the bottom. I got those off...
Hi Joe, I guess its built sandwhich style as its made from sections. Actually, to be honest, I didn't make it. I commissioned it from a chap who used to make...
Hi Paul, You're right, its not a Aphid. i wanted a smaller more useful ship to use as a fast-reaction gunboat rather than a more powerful 'line' gunboat. As i...

Hi, I'm not sure where they are now but a while ago there were some excellent plans for a 1/96 Aphid available on the web. A chap built one and its pics were...
This vessel was designed for use on Earth. This is sort of an alternative to heavy Krupp howitzers. Since Germany will find fortresses on any frontier she...
... I've run a scenario I call 'Exalted in the Heavens' several times, at conventions and for home games. Basically, its the main fleet battle that follows...
... That sounds interesting, is it in a postable form? ... Good idea, that. My games usually revolve around the Brits defending something, but I usually run...
... That's excellent, thanks! ... I agree. That's a great write up. ... Very true! -- "...How shall a man judge what to do in such times?!" "As he has ever...
It's been mentioned that giving the Brits goals other than destroying enemy ships works. The same could be done for Martians. Imagine a scenario where a...
