By the way, does anyone know who S. Suliga is? I ran a few searches and couldn't find anything outside of bibliography references. I would be interested in...
There are some standard "Jane´s" and some Russian sources in Russian. I see if my friend can translate them in to some thing readable. The scanner at work is...
... A non-range guessing combat chart has been on my Battlefleet 1900 to- do list for a while now. Although I also considered that players might be able to...
Rick I tried posting a reply to this yesterday but seem to have mislaid it. I use Navwar too. If Jim is doing all this stuff then in my view it would be worth...
... I did consider it, but the 1/3000 were both easier to make and were compatible with the existing line for the period. ... I'd be curious to see what the...
Thanks Jim and Colin for suggestions! We did our first Battlefleet game yesterday, using the Beta rules. Russian raiders (Rossiya, Gromboi, Rurik, Bogatyr and...
Hey Rick, ... Yeah, looks like the Japanese should have stuck with the delaying action plan and waited for the heavy stuff to come up. The Gromoboi and Rossia...
Jim Yeah, some nice ideas for scenarios! I have posted some more pics in the Colin T album - all Navwar, including one of Yenisei. The others are two...
... We've done a *lot* of different scenarios. There was one really great battle once between an American squadron of five or six 1901 era battleships against...
Jim! We are going to try your scenario with Sevastapol tonight. A short question: Is "No Armour" equal to an Armourvalue of "0" meaning that all AP shell...
Hey Rick, Yes, you're right on the 150+ line for shells hitting an unarmored ship. Having no armor is a bad thing. :) Even a six pdr shell can damage an...
New to the group. Just wanted to post and say 'Hello'. I'm getting back to my roots and starting 25mm Napoleonics again. I already play some 6mm Nappies...
We played the Sevastopol scenario yesterday. Sevastopol, with no Boat guns and her front turret out of commission, together with 4 Destroyers tried to run the...
Hi Casey, I used to do 20mm myself, with the "old" Bruce Quarry rules. Which rules do you use for the 25mm? I'm not sure if there are many Texans hanging...
Sounds like the game went really well. Not surprising the Niitaka sank. The real-life Asama was hit by 30cm at Tsushima and she dropped out of line pretty...
" BTW, did the Sevastopol's player fire 30cm AP or HE at the Japanese cruisers? " She fired 30 cm AP-shells, She only hit once, all other damage was from her ...
As several regulars know, I came to be friends with a few WWI veterans since starting WTJ in 1996. I met the first and oldest becuase of a trip to Comdex in...

Well, I saw it last night. All I can say is run, do not walk, to the nearest theater. It's really an outstanding film and I would be at a loss to even know...
