Fantastic stuff! I absolutely love your ships! :-*

You must have quite a collection now? Between the three from the BSC and these....

Hi, most of the pirate ships are from a dusted project I started two years ago, but ist one of my biggest collection (beside viking fleet and medieval) now counting 11 ships more or less finished.

Today we made a small demo game testing the home brewn ship-to-ship fighting rules for many ships on small tables.

The Situation:
Three small spanish ships are anchored in a bay when an english privateer arrived.

The cotton balls indicates that the guns of the spanish ships are not loaded.


The english privateer is havely beaten by gunfire. During round three I was clearly put out of action drifting around, trying to repair the ship and reorganize the Crew.

Luck changed and the spanish ships weren't able to coordinate their boarding attempts. At the end the spanish galleon and the small ship to the left were captured while the small ship to the right escaped....

After watching the first episode of Saints & Strangers I felt I need a small settlement.

Great thread! And I'm amazed by the pace at which you're building stuff!
