By way of colour chart I mean a proper chart that refernces specific paint colours either by paint manufactuer or by international colour codes either way they can then be cross referenced easy enough. But you are right merely posting a colour sample would not suffice.

I shoul dalso point out the other problem I have is that I live in Papua New Guinea, there are no hobby stores in Papua New Guinea. I get all my stuff sent up form Australia so a colour chart is what I need or at least would be handy.

Although close enough can good enough the whites and reds on the FORTH could be a problem. These two colours are not easy to match, the slightest difference can look pretty bad and colour charts are often ink colour which are not always a true representation.

I have been missing from the boards for a long time, really hanging back for SSTEvo and dropping in from time to time. I have been complacent about the delays and accept the game will arrive when it arrives. I am not sure if the question has been asked in my absence or not. While looking at...

I tried to swap my wife once. I thought it was a fair trade but in the end the owner of the Aston Martin renegged, guess I wil have to save up and buy one now :cry:

Has anybody got any pics of the Navwar range. I love the look of the GHQ but for the price of one ship I can get a whole Fleet Pack from Navwar. Just nor sure on the quality. Pics and comments would be appreciated

Not quite, they are actually fibreglass hulls with large sections cutaway, these sections are then overlayed with balsa wood, once the firing begins the BBs chipaway at the balsa and eventually the ship leaks and sinks. There is a hatch in the deck that floats off (but is attached by line)...

Check this out, these guys are serious, RC Battleships that fire ball bearings at competitior ships. They actualy sink. http://www.ausbg.org/index.html Makes a rule book and dice seem insufficient somehow :cry:

I see terrain as a main play in many scenarios. Certainly for Pacific campaings, small Islands, land based air attacks on shipping, tropical reefs in places they are not supposed to be etc. For Europe what about big mother German Krupp shore batteries pounding away at shipping. Not to mention...

Very good Bus, most of it as per the link although can I pick you up on LOA is listed as 887 feet not 888 feet, better luck next time. :D

Minis are very hard to get in PNG, mail order tkaes forever and heaps of duty to pay ontop so will probably make my own. scale 1:3000. In searching for dimensions on ships I found this website. http://www.history.navy.mil/index.html it may have been posted, I have not read all the threads. I...

I'm looking forward to the air rules. Living in the middle of where a lot of the Pacific action took place means I will be playing mostly US and Japanese ships. We have a WWII wreck in our harbour, actually many around here but this one is visable. The MV McDhui a supply ship was sunk by...

Hey thanks for that, line liners have pulled all the available ones around here so anything would be nice.

Both but mainly for the miniatures

Yep can see the craters, looks good, I like the way you have doen the hills so the raised part hits the edge of the hex in the same place. Try some internal curves as well to help break up the landscape.
