Not even a day, & you were already trying to stifle discussion that you don't like, privately e-mailing people to tell them what they can or can't say.

I truly pity anybody who honestly thinks that they've seen everything. What an awful existence that must be, to never have any surprises, no joy of new discoveries, no adventure of learning something new. I hope I never get to be like that.

Oh lord forgive me I know not what I say Sorry. I hope you never get that way either. It is not good for the soul. Again it is an opinion. Sorry it is not taken in a funny context instead of always serious. Thank you for your pity. | | | |

1/6000 th scale, are you joking? Thats tiny.
They really are. I have seen some and think the bb's are about an inch...if that.
I am not here to intterupt this forum.I liked naval wargaming since 1969. I have collected 1/1200th scale,sold. Wanted to get back in the 80s. 1/2400th came along. Sold when I got married. Now I have bought the British and German vessels that fought at Jutland. It is the co0st and space restrictions that I ventured into this. If you want to talk war gaming start a new forum. Thank you for coming to my support. | | | |

If interested check out Gaming Conventions. There is a big historical convention in Pennsylvania. The biggest Origons is in Ohio around July. Gencon is another. | | | |

 | | 10 Oct 2008 08:31 PM | | Storm Eagle Studios is putting the last bit of polish on Jutland, the sequel to their awesome computer game Distant Guns: The Russo Japanese War. They've got the mechanics down, they're just putting the last touches on the eye candy. Once Jutland is out, I'll upgrade Kotori's graphics card and introduce you to the game Dan. You can then play against the computer AI whenever you want and try some of these interesting what-if scenarios.
Here's a few preview screenshots: http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland_The%203rd%20Battle%20Squadron_1166.jpg http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland%20at%201548_406.jpg http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland%20at%201548_702.jpg http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland%20at%201548_765.jpg http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland%20at%201548_726.jpg http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland%20at%201548_845.jpg http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland%20at%201548_1150.jpg http://www.gamesquad.com/images/stories/Jutland%20at%201548_865.jpg

I like the one sinking. That looks like a British Repulse BC. Is it? One of these days I will have to try that WW 2 Pacific one I bought. | | | |

 | | 23 Aug 2009 04:04 PM | | I am a Naval war gamer. Would be neat to play a map game and have the main Admirals do all the map movement and when the vessels make contact we have a battle with the ships involved. | | | |
