The ship was built by one of The League's master model makers, Cameron 'Von Stauffenberg' Thomson.  Its mostly card and foamboard.  I'm not sure how he made it, but yes, it does look fabulous.

Re pics, I will trawl through the archives.  Iain 'V.I.' Blackwood has taken thousands of great shots over the years.

Re rules, if I can figure our how to load them (which I will) I will load them.  Theyre not great to be honest, but they do work.  However, as always, I am open to ideas.

If it works, that's all that's needed. A lot of rule sets are often complex just for the sake of it and if yours do what you need then I'm sure they're fine.

Looking forward to reading them  :)

Another picture.  This time The Jolly Jack Tars of HMS 'Hearts of Oak' storm the waterside lair of the evil Chinese warlord and opium fiend 'Slan Ties'.

Figures painted by Steve Dean, fort by Rodger 'Smirnoff' Williams.

I think you can get those figures from Old Glory USA. They are from the Cowboy Wars range. I think they are listed as the Russian Hunting party.

Yup, OG USA kept the Cowby Wars range. I think they got it because most if not all of that line was sculpted by Chris Hughes, not Andy, but it confuses everyone. ZCW 47 and 48 are the Russian hunting party. 45 and 46 are the "European" hunting party. I'm not sure what is in those packs but I'll have to give them a look at the next con. Something tells me they will have some BoB potential.

Ignatieff,  incrediblly inspiring photos!

I sent Steve a CD with the last campaign ("Cradle of Life" ) on it. He has the time (and the computer)  to load stuff stuff quicker than me.

However....the secret archives are yet to be revealed!  Photos of the previous 5 campaigns.  The photos he has are just of the last one!!
