Hi everyone, I think this might be of interest. I went to Athens to check out the Olympias and few other interesting stuff!

Not sure how I missed this before, but it was an awesome read.

Bonus points for the photo of the HS Georgios Averof as well!

Fabulous, hopefully get a opportunity to see the museum this year and see the Olympias myself.

What rules are you using for your naval games ?

Loved the Samian campaign reports

Cheers

I'm late to the party, but I (finally) created an account just to comment on how beautiful your pictures are and how fascinating your descriptions were of this ship.

Thank you for posting this!

Matt: glad you enjoyed, we had great fun too.As for rules, so far I used He Hemetra Talassa with a lot of house rules. I was going to publish those, but in doing so I realized that I basically rewrote the whole ruleset. So I think I am soon going to publish on the blog my own rules soon!  I am drafting it right now.

captain harlock, did you finally go? show your pictures if you did!

sturgk: I thank you sincerely! it feels really good to know that my work contributes to the hobby. thank you!
