I assume this MG is qualified as a MEDIUM mg in the 1916 rules?...
I noticed that almost all of the tanks in the Vehicle List carry LIGHT machine guns, while actually most (not all) were fitted for the French and British with...
I am intending to do some yards etc for my Germans, but I am considering using the old aero-modellers standby for rigging and 'stringing' polystyrene glue. How...
Hi Doug, Using thread isn't as hard as it may look, you know. If it was, I'm sure I wouldn't have been able to do it; though rigging some Rod Langton models...
Apologies for the cross-posting - does anyone know a source of information for the colours of the Russian auxiliaries (AMCs, Kamchatka, hospital ships, tugs...
The problem with most thread is it is 'hairy' but polystyrene strings are very fragile. Excellent job, very impressive. cheers Doug M. "Theban Sacred Band...
I have some thread for tying the flies I use for my trout fishing (1:1 scale insect models). This thread is very fine and waxed so it isn't hairy at all. I...

Nice, I do a similar thing - but I base on 2" x 1" bases for pre-dreds, then the last 10mm of the bases is a label with the ship name. I haven't attempted to...
Hi Doug: Good point about classes. But as we're all complete noobs, we're just trying to avoid a mistake we made in our WW2 game where someone *cough* *cough*...
I guess one of the things is that we are usually dealing with smaller engagements, and DBSA has extremely simple rules so that minor differences between ships...
Hi Erwin, I talked to Karl last night and he gave pretty much the same reason, mainly that they might have been medium machine guns but their ultimate...
Just so people will know things are still going on at WTJ despite high oil prices and world-wide uncertainty about the situation in Iceland, I thought I'd post...
Hello, Looking for info on Germans at MB. Also I read that the English and Japanese had some ships there as well. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks ...
Hey Kevin, Below is a list of German ships and their dates of arrival on Pacific Station: 1897 Prinzess Wilhelm Kormoran Kaiser Arcona Irene 1898 Kaiserin...
Below are copies of two postings, one by Doug and one by me, the two ... Now that I have a German Far East Fleet, I was looking at it's RN counterpart, and...
Very good info. Should make for an interesting scenario. Not only does Dewey have the possible Spanish reinforcements, but now German. Thanks, Kevin...
As Jim says, the 4 ships of the Brandenburg Class plus Furst Bismarck were sent to the Far East in 1900 as a show of strength in the Boxer Rising. The list I...
