Hi Jim! I have for a while enjoyed the 1916 rules, but now decided to have a try at naval wargaming. The Quickfire rules looks good to start of with, but there...
Hey Lars, ... Sorry Lars, as you probably already noticed there is a "More text here" note under the Examples section! :o A 10 versus 10 would be a 100%...
Hi Jim! You have done it again! Tried the "Quickfire" rules last night. We played Ulsan and recived a good historical result (The Russians being battered and...
Thanks for sorting things out for me Jim. Maybe you can replace the "percentages" with labels like 1:4, 1:2, 1:1 and so on. Best regards Lars R "Jim B."...
... That's okay, either way a naval battle is the result. :) ... Good question. To be honest I haven't done much testing that involved destroyers taking lots...
Jim! Thanks for your answers. We are going to try it again soon with a more varied scenario (battleships, cruisers and destroyers/torpedo boats). By the way,...
I don't have the Chinese Steam Navy book around right now, and that's probably the best single source on the matter. An on-line quote of Philo McGiffin states...
The latest release of 1/3000 WTJ Naval pre-dreadnoughts has arrived. I finished photographing them last night and posted the new ship lists (with sample...
I have a book with drawings of a lot of WWI armoured cars; so I will make a list for every country, naming type of car (car chassis or truck), its proper name,...
Hey Rick, If I remember correctly, this is an abridged collection of reports based on the 10 volumes+ at the public records office at Kew (Bill Madison could...
I think the armoured cars that were completely enclosed, should at least receive a soft cover bonus from (in)direct fire (of any type). Perhaps you could even...
Take a look in the files section for an example I made; if this is approved for its lay-out and sort of information provided, I will continue making more lsist...

Wow, looks great Erwin. In the first column where it says "(in) direct" do you mean both direct and indirect? Just making sure. The only other suggestion I...
Rick, Yes, I have a copy and although I have read only snippets as yet, IMHO it is a worthwhile addition to the library of anyone seriously interested in the...
Rich, do you happen to know if this title is a reprint of an earlier compilation, or if it's an "original" edition of compiled documents? Just curious, I seem...
I have just found these rules and am looking at using them. Can you tell me how the number of gun dice for each vessel is calculated so I can calculate the...
Jim, I'm not certain, but the back of the title page states "Originally prepared Admiralty Intelligence Department" and the Table of Contents appears to be a...
A guy named Emmanuel has built a 490-figure battalion of guard voltiguers at 1:1 scale and posted a website showing it in various formations, changing...
Hi, I'm new to the group and specialy interested in the 1916 WW1 rules.I was never fond of multifigure based units and I use another rules set for small...
That message was not from a member, it was Yahoo getting hacked again. They're size unfortunately makes them a target for such things, so I just delete them...
Hi Nuno! To the best of my knowledge, what matters is the numbers of bases and the size of them. How many figures you put on each base doesn't really matter...
Hi, It seems that platoons and companies are abstract subunits. So a platoon can be two figures or six and companies are build accordingly. Command stands...
David Oliver kindly wrote up a Republique OOB for Borodino *quite* a while back (read: years) and I never posted it! :o I recall I had a few questions about...
