On the site, it seems to suggest that Part one was in 329.

I've just checked in the back issues "VAULT" available as part of the online Prime subscription to Wargames Illustrated... tis issues 329 and 330 and it looks lovely!  ...Worth a 1 month trial subscription ;-)

Not sure if it is just the magazine you're after or the articles, but they were posted up on the forum before Wargames Illustrated.

I still have the original un-edited articles on e-mail too if they're any use.

Sorry only just noticed this, I have a hard copy of the magazine  but no digital copy however I wrote the original articles (there were three but WI edited these down to two on publication).
As Bryan said they were done from a campaign we ran at Wigan Wargames so we have the originals in  word documents for all three if you want them though the pictures from the article are just in the mag. Article 1 was historical background. Articles 2 & 3 were rules adaptations, scenarios and modelling (of boats that is)! There were more scenarios in the campaign than in the WI  article as some were edited out to keep it to 2 articles.
Anyway if you want any of these word documents  pm me with your email & I'll send them you.
