Great to see some more 1/2400th TD goodness on the LAF. Very nice paintwork you have there!

...and that new GW mat was worth the price of the game on its own...........

I just noticed the triple turreted monitor to the back right of the photo. I take it that it is a conversion? If it is, do tell! I need a pair of triple turreted monitors to fight the Turks.

Nope, it`s all `pure` as it came out of the pack


Indeed Joroas, she was.  I took out the Chaos Dwarf ship (being a CD afficionado), the scenery sprue (for Uncharted Seas use) and that mat, and just gave the rest of the game away to a clubmember who wanted to go buy the box just for the ships themselves.  He could live with a free 3/4ths box missing one of the 10 ships

I didn't go as far as to give it away, but it is all still on the sprues for a later date................

Really? Cool, I don't suppose you know the product code? I cant find it on the TD website.

You need to go to the catalgue http://www.tumblingdiceuk.com/pdfdocs/Age_of_Sail.pdf

I *think* its ASV 54, but feel free to save a copy of the pic, paint a big red arrow on it and send it on to TD to ask exactly which one of the packs contains said vessel

Very nice painting.

My only comment is that the mighty Mississippi river is never ever blue. It is a muddy brown. Living in just outside Memphis I see the river often. Of course this would in no way my enjoyment were I lucky enough to play a game with your fine flotilla.

Thanks for posting the pics.

Hey - thanks for replying. Ive bought the 'ASV 54' pack before now and that little jem wasn't in it. I think I own almost his entire range of 1/2400 ships. I'll send him an email to see if its not just out of production / not in the catalog nowadays.

Thanks
