Hey Jim, I've seen those photos before, what a beautiful Spanish fleet! I think those are Langton miniatures, the ones I'm going to get. I hope I manage to...
I have had to relay the question - because I haven't got any of Rod Langton's 1/1200 Napoleonic ships, a friend has more than enough - hence the delay. Yes, we...
Thanks for your help, David. I decided not to go with his bases because of the additional cost (although they are very nice). How did you and your friend...
Alon Yes, we just doubled all distance factors. Nothing more complicated. My ramblings on the scale used. The distance travelled - and the reloading of the...
I'm a recent addition to the group of fans of your efforts, I'd like to ask a few questions about both the line and the finishing of the line. I've always been...
In a tangentally related issue, I am currently reworking a game on the Spanish American War, Remember The Maine!, and am attempting to fill in some missing...
Hi; Couple of answers here; 1- Arco re-printed a number of the early Janes. Check ABEBooks.com. I have the 1898 but it's in storage. The 1904 has a bit on Port...
3-Anyone wanting to do Russo-Japanese or Sino-Japanese should talk to me ( online here ) before starting!! . Good Gaming Chuck ************************** Hi...
I just posted a new combat chart that corresponds to the Large scale values listed at the start of the rules. Basically they are doubled from the medium scale,...
Hi Terry, ... Wow, this is the first time that idea has been mentioned. I would guess that it's do-able with the right equipment. I'll have to take a look at...
Hi Luc; There are a couple of good books I would suggest. 1- Sir Julian Corbett, " Maratime Operations in the Russo-Japanese War". He was a RN officer who was...
Hi Chuck, Thanks !!! I'll start looking for those books, hopefully second-hand and Wilson and/or McCully less expensive.... (;-)). Since I live in The...
Hi! I realise that these rules are written for actions with larger ships, but I like to use some of those smaller vessels as well. There are some values for a...
Thanks for your help, Jim. I've just received my beautiful Langton miniatures (in double quick time from the UK!) so it will be a while before I can test the...
I think that I've found the solution for the "fighting tops" on the military masts of the period. Evergreen offers styrene rods, channels and other shapes as...
Anyone have any suggestions or articles on scratch building ships of Battlefleet 1900? There was an article on this in the original rules, but the accompanying...
Chuck, Quick question, what paint scheme would you recommend for Sino-Japanese War Japanese ships? I've been doing my Chinese in the Victorian era livery...
Hey Terry, I know some players have tried this method previously, but so far I'm not sure that anybody worked it out completely. I think the main problem to...
Well, anything that I attempt will have to be with hand tools only. I was never part of the precision machining branch of modeling; too much capital...
After a slightly longer than planned mastering cycle the Chinese ships are off to the foundry for molding. I delayed their release in order to add some...
I just visited the 6mm Yahoo Group for the first time in quite a while. The last few months of postings are completely swamped with SPAM of every imaginable...
Jim, as I understand it the "6mm Miniatures" group had a no moderation policy so got spammed to death, this started a while ago and a breakaway group...
