Hey all, What ships do I use as substitutes for the following engagement ? Battle of Santiago, Spanish-American War Spain the three large torpedo boats Furor,...
Yes it is that time again. With Cold Wars the first weekend in March we need to get in gear now! The deadline for GMs for the Preliminary Events List is the...
Hi Mike, For Indiana you can use the Oregon, they were sister ships. For the Porter your only current substitute is Torpedo Boat #1, which is a generic tiny...
Hi Jim! Jim: For Indiana you can use the Oregon, they were sister ships. Right… I knew that. (thunks self on head!> Jim: For the Porter your only current...
... Actually, I just checked Porter in Conway's and she was quite a large TB, so the tiny generic TB#1 would not really work. You could however, use the...
Hi all! As some people take interest in reading "battle reports", here's one for you. It's a fictive naval engarement from the RJW played using a heavily ...
Hey, thanks for the Battle Report! Sounds like a blast! ;) One question though, with the larger playing field, how did you handle flag signalling/wireless...
Hi Mike and thanks, We didn't use any rules restricting the communications between the ships or squadrons, but as I basically doubled all distances (range,...
Ah, I was curious because those of us on the DBSA list (Damn Battleships Again) were discussing ways to handle flag signalling. As such, I was hoping you might...
... yes, I am still looking for mechanisms. I think it should be a case of pay for sub-commanders, varying costs for varying competence and any orders should...
Hi guys! I have finally worked out how to ad a PDF to my web-site, so just visit the battle report again and there you have it. The current version is an...
Hi! I'm trying to build up a chinese squadron and the dutch pacific fleet (both of them extracted from the scenarios from Space 1889 sourcebook "Ether flyers...
I think the Atjeh (now called Aceh) might be "proxied" by the USS Boston, although I'd have to see if Atjeh had symetric armament. It might take a few...
I am searching for a game for large battles of the period such as jena, auerstad, waterloo, borodino etc.I like very much the philosophy of republique and I...
Hey, My group has been using Republique for about 5 years now and its the best set we've found so far (subjective opinion of course) however when we have...
Napoleon's Battles ...1° or (best) or 2° edition.... old ... but very good game....See: http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/napsbattles/?yguid=57053237 ...
Our group changed from Napoleons Battles to Republique in order to play larger sized games. The Multi phase mechanism in NB is far too involved for big games. ...
Dear Rob, Unfortunately my friends and I do not have a large company (of 8 players at the time) as yours to play battles such as Borodino. That's why I try to...
Hi Vaggelis, The basic unit of maneuver for Republique is the regiment/brigade. Did someone tell you it was battalions?? Actually, the average unit of maneuver...
Republique is set at Regiment level (or Brigade for the British), each base of figures being 550 "men" so not as extreme as you feared. Plus lots of the early...
By the purest coincidence, I was in YouTube looking at an unrelated link when I decided to run a search for the latest IJN footage. There are people who have...
Hi all, Im looking for a bit of info that Im hoping you stalwarts may be able to help me out with as the Russo Japanese War Yahoo Group didnt answer. Ive...
... Try asking on the RJW group again - they generally answer pretty much any questions there :-) In any case, the following deployments were given for...
... Thank for the info Thomo. So I guess they would be Lamp Black(ish) then with Ochre funnels and wooden decking?...that and a hell of a lot of japanese shell...
Hey Mike, Those are definitely questions for me. :) There was no particular reason for the order in which the one-clicks were introduced. The French were added...
That might be your best option. I have studied the likely capital ship color schemes quite a lot, but not the destroyers. So I would not be much help in that...
