First time I have seen someone magnetize the ship bases and use the underside of the table for gaming.
Interesting idea but I don't think it will catch on.

I see you are from Belfast - but it looks like the photos were taken from the southern hemisphere - where everything is upside down and the water in the tub drains counterclockwise?

Looks interesting though.

Lookin good!  Looks like fun without spending the usual arm and a leg.

As for my last comment  regarding the photos taken in the land of Oz. As we say in New Yawk - Fagedaboudit!

Always good to hear from a " cousin " from across the pond. We had a very enjoyable game of Aurelian by Sam Mustafa last night btw . Unfortunately your postal charges deter me from ordering too much more items from him , at the moment.
