Scharnhorst as a cruiser is also kinda pushing it. The rulebook comes out in January with what I hope will be up to date ship lists and stats. I’ll kinda play it by ear until then.

Yeah, the Italian fleet box is a complete WTF moment. The Aquila in particular. The other fleets also have some head-scratcher pics. But the Italians… *facepalm*

I’ve seen the stats for the Leander. They get one AD per turret. But they’re Twin-Linked. So… not as bad as you’d think. The Edinburghs get 2 AD per turret, but without the Twin-linked.
Both turret sets also get fast track. So, some bennies.

Thanks for posting that sheet. 🙂 If you do a German/UK one I would definitely be interested. I ordered the RN fleet last week.

Enioch, your terrain stuff is still looking wonderful. 🙂
Going back to your plane counters: where did you find the images you printed for them? I’m about at the point where I need to consider doing some of my own.
Thanks in advance. 🙂

If it was that way in Beta, then you’re right: it is probably a fudge. I’m not sure I like the reasoning. But But it is what it is. 🙂
Thanks for the info.

So, another item that seemed odd to me. Was wondering if it might be a card error.
We were looking at the stats for the Pre-War Mogami weapons. Prior to the turrets being 2x 8″ guns, they were 3x 6″ guns. We looked at the stats on the back of the card for the 6-inchers. Now, while they lowered the stats of the gun appropriately [lowering the…[Read more]

Okay, I must’ve read something into it. Probably what the rule will look like once they put out a full rulebook. I’m thinking the rule is just written poorly. [Which would not make it the first one in this book.] Otherwise, not only is the observation role generally useless, it completely contradicts one of its historical usages.

IIRC, the “stationary target” thing is for a target without an observation plane assigned to it. If you have an observation plane assigned to a ship, you can shoot at it over the horizon. Otherwise, what’s the point? :-/

Oh, those hex cards are exceptionally cool! Well detailed and easier to travel with than standard terrain pieces. [I often have to travel to get games in. So portability is a big deal for me.]
I get the “dirty” thing with washes. Basically, I brush longer strokes on the broad areas and dab in the detail areas. While these washes are wate…[Read more]

Good stuff, Enioch. 🙂
If I may add to the showcase, these are my first VaS models, painted to run a small demo at my LGS. Hoping I can get enough interest to get others to buy in. I don’t want to have to buy all the fleets. 😀

Excellent. Thank you. 🙂

Thanks, Nat. 🙂
About the firing arcs: I get where the arcs are drawn from off the shooting vessel. My concern is: what part of the target needs to be within that arc for it to be a valid target? Would that be the bridge as well? Or does any part of the vessel suffice? I would think “just the bridge of the target.” But I wanted to be sure.

Hi all. Just picked up the starter box and went through the rules pamphlet. Had a couple questions. Most of them are just me confirming how certain rules are played. 😛
Aircraft trait “Tough:” The rule states that it requires two hits from a single AA battery to kill the flight. I just want to confirm that, even if there are multiple AA gun…[Read more]
