I have been thinking about naval VBCW. As per the usual, the question would be how much of the support mechanisms would be in operation. A minor RN vessel would make a mess of any enemy within sight of its guns, but for how long could it operate?
I’m inclined toward riverine warfare as more in keeping with VBCW actions, or perhaps coastal piracy of supply ships.

Yes, we play small flotilla, with cruel seas rules.

I’ll probably do 28mm scratch built, using an amended WtDW. The Bristol Channel is about 19 miles at its head, the Firth of Forth one mile, plenty of room there for an open table. Of course, a tramp steamer would be 12-18” long at the ground scale, so will be more of a terrain piece :-)
