Last night I was thinking about my last post and this morning I sent of my subscription to SFSFW. "In the post now". The reason is that rather than say I'm...
... Well Steve's only just rejoined the list so I didn't see this when first posted. I am hoping to sit down and start work on the compendium over the summer...
Any one out there have drawings of this craft - I'm looking to make a model of it in 1/300th scale. If not - then has any one a model that they would be will...
On Comcast's Homepage there is a video of a huge dust/sandstorm that just hit I think it was Phoenix, Arizona. Good training and a good idea of the effects of...
Hello all, I have been playing 1889 since it came out in hte 1980's. Dusted off the rule books recently and started playing some Sky Galleon combat again and...

... Actually it says that a ship can weigh from 100 to 160 tons per hull size (C&G pg 10). The hulls' actual weight isn't taken into account when designing a...
Thanks for the info. I am aware of the Gametech pictures, but the Fenian Ram is only shown in profile and is difficult to assess the width and plan detail. I...
I don't have my books here with me, but as I recall, the tunnage to hull size ration was more like; 80-99/HS = VH maximum altitude 100-119/HS = H maximum...
The actual hull of a flyer weighs nothing, but it determines the weight of the various items that can be added. The weight (and therefore cost) of ram, ...
Thank you all, A no weight hull just didn't make sense, I figured it had to weigh something. But affter reading these replies I went back and reverse designed...
... Hi Chris, sorry about the delay. I made so many hull variants that I'm still in the layout part of the process, haven't even started the texturing process....
Eric, Take your time, Life takes priotity over hobbies. I was just very excited to find your other models. Any chance that you might try and do a tutorial on...
I have up-loaded two sets of new photos to the photo section, The first show finished models, while the second features WIP. I hope that you like them Tony...
They're great Tony! I like how you made each Hullcutter different from each other, like they would be in "real life". How long are those models and how long...

Wow Tony, I am impressed by your models, makes my own efforts look pretty lame. I never make comments like this, but for your ships I'll make an exception! I...
Thank you for the kind comments - I really apreciate them. The models range in length between 90mm to 150mm long and up to 70mm wide. (They are all 1/300th...

I wonder if the Tossian Empire had any units similar to the Young Guard Flanquer Chasseurs, Conscrit (Consript) Grenadiers, Votiguers or Trialleurs, with...
Hi, That's very good and interesting. I've read most of your posting of this, but not from the begginning since I wasn't here, or there or where-ever. Chris ...

<snip>Level bombing might have been far more effective from a flyer, since they can carry a truely grand bomb load, or even a Grand Slam or TWO. Also they...
... I'll disagree with this statement. Liftwood flyers "as built" are not designed to dive bomb. However that doesn't mean you cannot build one that can dive...
