    Silly fighter base question

    @tneva82 and Joe_Dracos : I just checked : I got two sizes for my Chronos bases, one is effectively smaller than the fighter base by 2 millimeters, the other is the same size. This explains that : not talking about the same thing. @Joe_Dracos : ok, I'll try a sample of those. Thanks, Gwen

    Silly fighter base question

    Hello, @Jaramid : thanks for the links. I found a few like that, but I don't like them, might have to fall back on those though ... @Star ranger : I'll look into it, thanks @Joe dracos & Banichi : I can't find those in the local stores, there's only the big ones. Are those the same as these ...

    Silly fighter base question

    Hello, I've got a question that might seem quite silly, but it's really bugging me. Basically, I'd like to base my fighters like this guy here, Protoman-swe I think (hope the url works ...), only three to a base : http://img184.imageshack.us/my.php?image=122008029largeoe5.jpg But I just...

    How close are your ACTA games in general?

    Most of our battles end up with one fleet completely destroyed (usually mine), and one fleet moderately to badly damaged. In general, there's no use for counting VPs. In most of our battles, the scenario is the following : Turn 1 : long range fire Turn 2 : long / middle range fire, one side...

    Stealth and terrain

    Hi all, A question occured to us on our last game about stealth rules for ships in a dust cloud. I did a search in the forum and the FAQ and couldn't seem to find an answer. If it has already been answered elsewhere (I seem to remember something, but I couldn't find it), a pointer is welcome...

    My British and German fleets.

    When I compare your 2 nights work against my week, I'm completely disgusted, so I'll just ask two questions : What paint did you use, especially for the hulls ? How did you do the darn sea ? And nobody should have the right to place the phrase 'Not the tidyest of paint jobs' and those pics in...

    Some pics

    Thanks ! I'll try a light cruiser and some more destroyers now. But when I see the paint job of Big Gazza, who says it's not neet because he did it in 2 evenings only, I've got trouble finding some motivation for posting pics ... Gwen

    Some pics

    Hi all, I had asked questions a while ago about painting my french ships, I painted a few and now I'm showing the first results of my (painstaking) efforts. Please feel free to comment, any input directed toward making the next ones better is welcome ... The little bit of white at the rear of...

    Painting questions

    Ostman, The less common thing was Vallejo stuff and such, not the bases. Actually, GW stuff is more or less the only miniatures one can find around here. What is plasticard ? It doesn't translate well in french, no idea what it is or where it could be found ... Is the site you linked to...

    Painting questions

    Hi, Being French, I bought a French Fleet pack plus a few additions. As far as I know, the only camo pattern was applied to some light cruisers, and it was called 'train wreck'. I am so NOT going to try that on that wee little piece of metal. I think I'll try both the black and light grey...

    Painting questions

    Ahem. Hi all, Browsing the forum at random, I stumbled on some images of naval minis in the VaS forum, and sort of, well, fell in love. Those ships are just so cute ! But I resolved manly to be a reasonnable, responsible adult and not embark in a collection of minis I would never use anyway...
