    VaS 2.0 Development Progress

    Spence I think you will find fewer and fewer LGS are carrying naval Minis these days which is forcing the issue of direct sales. Not sure if you are familiala with Panzerschiffe? http://www.panzerschiffe.com/Catalog.html They are a small mom and pop producer of inexpensive 1/2400 minis. The...

    What miniatures do you use for VAS?

    Hmmm....the poll only allows one choice. I use WaS for all my WWII gaming and a combination of Panzerschiffe and GHQ for WWI.

    My newest planes

    Ray, I like your planes...you might want to try using some piano wire for the supports in the future. I have had very good results with 0.15 as it is somewhat flexible and not very noticable. I originally used small styrene rods, but they proved unreliable as the planes would tend to fall...

    VAS Forum

    I made this post May 11 2010: At the time I posted the above I was hopeful something was coming from mongoose. That was 7 months ago...unfortunately nothing new has come to be. I have since further invested in Naval Thunder and am very happy with the results as it provides an excellent means...

    Planes for VAS

    Like rcbecker1 I have many WaS planes which work well unaltered. I have also used the 1/1200 by CAP AERO. I cannot imagine going any smaller then 1/1200 as fighters are staring to get pretty small at that scale.

    War at Sea

    I like the WaS game, so moving over to VaS and others it just makes sense to use the same minis. Yes they are plastic, but that is a bonus to me not a negative. I have dropped too many GHQ or even PS models and they spent time glueing parts back on after a slur of colorful adjectives. With no...

    Ah, no the background is just what felt looks like close up. ;) I am actually transitioning to Marine vinyl wich comes 54" wide and has a nice color blue. Ships slide on it much better.

    SMS Von Der Tann

    Thanks Correct...this is a GHQ model which requires some assembly. For this one in particular I did all the deck work before I put any of the superstructure on. I always mount the turrets last. You mean like this? I currently have my bases slightly different colors for RJW and WWI. I...
