Hello! Today I added 4 new pics of my Mylae project. The first ship with painted hull - a very timeconsuming painting job, but I think it's a good result. Any...
Very nice looking, did you prime the entire hull first or is that the colour it came? I am doing a similar project with 6-8 ships for a Admiral of the Roman...
Hello! The entire hull is painted with humbrol enamel colours and I have to say it is a hard work. First a basing with dark brown and then two coats of rust...
Anyone else use card figures ? They seem appropriate to me for use with card ships. Loads of choice available at http://www.juniorgeneral.org/paper.html Post...
We did manage to put on one play test game of Roman Seas this month and that occurred on December 22nd. This was a Play Test to see how Mark Anthony's ships...
... Hopefully, yes. We are in the process of rewriting the movement section of the rules to reflect the latest changes to the rules. Once this is completed,...
Hey Guys, I'm constructing some partially sunken galleys. Any suggestions for what to use for broken oars? Right now I'm thinking of using broom straw. Have...
Hello Bruce You don't mention what scale your ships are. However if they are 1/300 scale then I would suggest you use toothpicks. They can be sanded easily...
Ray, Hey, good idea! I hadn't given tooth picks any thought, but you can be sure that I'll be working with them this weekend. When I get enough ready for a...
Flat toothpicks will take a lot less sanding, in case you were thinking about the round ones, like most of us use in our mouths. The flat ones are still...
Hi guys, I just picked up 2 building sets and looking to print them up for 15mm gaming. What's the best way to go about it? Thanks in advance. Cheers, Jeff...
Maybe this is none of my business, but the question needs to be asked. Where's Eric? He's made, and failed to meet, several deadlines for release of his Marc...
Jeff, Howdy; Your question is the same that I encountered earlier this year. I wanted to enlarge Eric's ships to 15mm. I quickly found that Staples was not an...
The Antony ships were featured in a Roman Seas game at the Salute convention (in Vancouver-Burnaby) this past weekend. The ships are nasty brutes in a scrum...
We are working on the Roman Seas rules. Hoping to get these out soon. Played several games at Trumpeter Salute 2008, including a small Mark Anthony scenario....
... Eric, What are the odds that the rules will be ready for Historicon? I was thinking about running a game or two there with my new ships (nothing like...
I've decided to launch my Roman naval project in grand style and will be putting on a game at Historicon this year using my new Roman Seas ships. I've decided...
Hi Eric Just to wish you well and hope life smiles on you again soon. 12 months down the track even the worst experiences are just unpleasant history! Cheers...
My life appears to be heading back on track once again... but not without it's surprises and backtracking. Still, I cannot complain. I am recovering. I have...
Some sources hint at trumpets and flags as signals, with trumpets being the most probable. However, it would seem that a number of battles were played out...
Eric, Thanks for the quick reply. Great stuff. I have purchased some Baccus late imperial romans for the marines of my 289 AD fleets and was planning to use...
Brian, Until the development of flag signals began in the sixteenth century, communication between ships at sea was impractical. For the most part, naval ...
I have posted a new report in my series covering my preparations for my Roman naval game at Historicon this year. This installment covers the first stands of...
