Hello all, So, I am returning to my scratchbuilding projects and am finding that the sides of my vessels are looking rather stark. To deal wit hthis, I would...
While I've not done so in this scale, I'd recommend finding a seller of microstrip and microrod and experimenting with them. If you can find right-angled...
I am not worrying too much about rivet detail. I am simply looking for a way to make the sides of my ships look less slab-sided. Also, because of the way they...
Yep, we've discussed making sponsons from some of our models available seperately - however, there are lots of things in the moulding queue ahead of that so it...
Thanks for the info, Tony. I have tried something similar but am having trouble coming up with a way to make the sponsons durable enough for play. Keep looking...
I use GZG's 15mm stowage set, jerry can things make great funnels & ammo box's make sponsons. Larger bits make good bodies/bridges. [Non-text portions of this...
Hmmmm, definitely something to work with there. I like the method of doing gun ports. This might work for some ships, though I'm a bigger fan of the built up...
During a recent game (our first proper whoo-hoo) of Ll a retreating Ll, it's side having broken, promptly did a parthian shot at a wounded enemy. The enemy was...
Hi David, LI (and contraptions) can shoot at a target in any arc, but half (rounded down) thier shooting dice if the target is not in the front arc. See first...
As has been previously pointed out the official contraptions do not meet the design parameters on page 15. I've just spent some time bashing the tables into a...
Where an Ironclad is one, a contraption is a unit. In play, the "brittle fragility" of contraptions mades them a double edged sword. Yes, they actually go...
I have a question on company sizes (200+ men). The rules suggested basing them on 2 stands per company. Question is do we play them as 1 base for Fire,...
Hi Joseph, The stats given in the back of the rules are for bases, not companies per se, although often a company and a base are the same thing. A big company...
Having typed all the tables into a spreadsheet the good news is that all the 'Inf' and 'Cav' points values are correct. With the 'Art' only those with a Speed...
We have a running dispute! I reason that they should be part of ESP, a bit like Finnish ski infantry 'arrying Russians. My learned collegue wants to field them...
Hi all; Gazooks! This is scary - I am also considering building the army of Grand Fenwick... I might have to get out more. best regards chaps, have a glass of...
Hi Dave, My recollection of the evening is slightly different. "We have a running dispute!"; Do we ? Not as far as I am concerned. Especially as it was someone...
... of Grand Fenwick... The Army is currently being mustered. Another Regiment is always welcome. We've stolen the plans for our contraptions and land...
On this site are several pictures from a couple of LI games that we recently played here in South Carolina, USA. In some of the pics you can see 8 land...
I want to buy the PDF version of the rules but google has failed to provide me with the link. The Wessex site appears to give the option of buying only the...
I know that this isn't what you are asking, but in case you were also thinking of buying a hard copy, I purchased mine from Brigade Games in the US and they...
This was posted to another group with the idea of it being used for 6mm aircraft. If the size of the fields were reduced it could work quite nicely for...
Thats a simple but brilliant idea! Have to give it a go... Mick ... 6mm aircraft. If the size of the fields were reduced it could work quite nicely for...
Hello chaps; Does anyone know how to post items on "yours in a white wine sauce" site? couldnt make head nor tail of it, well dash it all chaps, these new ...
Nice mat. It reminds me of "Richtofen's War" (I think that was the name). That was a WWI hex-based aerial combat game. The terrain had no effect on the game...
