USS Helena PG-9
« on: 06 May 2016, 02:28:34 AM »
Found a gunboat model I'd like to use for a river action on the Yangtze:

Only problem is that it's at the National Museum of the United States Navy at the Navy Yard in Washington, D.C., and I'm not sure I can convince the Museum to loan it to me for a miniatures game! Sigh,... may have to scratch build a smaller version.

Perhaps they'll allow you to bring all your miniatures to the museum and run a demo game using the ship?  ;)

I expect they're mainly worried you'll waterline it.
