Length from end to end of the pieces shown is 16cm versus 25cm.

1/150 if is then though I shall use this 1/120 for one of mine as it was cheap at £6.66 and lends itself to tarting up.  Btw it comes with 8 loose cannon.

There's an image of the Pendragon gun on that forum link a few posts up. 

So if 1/150 it is then to Pendragon I am off to shop!

I am tempted to use the 1/200 boats as little ones .... We shall see

We've had a very pleasing pirates game using some rules of captain Bloods plus if I remember rightly Sharpes Practice includes ship movement.  Maybe a combination of the two unless something better comes along.

Sure thing Kev....

There are a fair few 1/150 ships about but they tend to be £25+.  The Black Falcon is simple but cheap.

This is where I bought it

And this is the review

http://www.epmodels.co.uk/shipkits/reviews/smer_falcon.html

It doesn't come with sails but I can vac-form those

Just noticed your comment about the Man of War rules - do you have something you can send me?

Cheers

I know the feeling ... I just bought a bunch of Pendraken when I should be building a fortified farmhouse!

Rules at BLAM will be fine, cheers

You know that in the BLAM thread I said I might leak stuff... ;)

I should be able to bring some of the ship bits and minis to BLAM for a look-see.
