Mind you, apparently during WW1 that statement could be considered accurate when shooting at warships that weren't within flat-trajectory range for most gunnery crews

Ships could spend quite a while blatting away at each other before they'd manage to straddle a target and get effective range. It's amazing the difference that WW2 optics, radar and basic mechanical computers made.

There did indeed seem to be something wrong with our bloody ships

Not much has changed since S&P

Vast ammounts have been added, and all the numbers have been tweaked, but, no, the core rules remain as they were.

Oooh, and out of interest, are we going to see U-boats?

You'll be wanting to give the Germans a try. Nasty.

something else to spend money on, think will prob stick with counters on this, spending too much on space ships as it is.

^If you took it down to 1:6000 scale you could pick up a good size fleet for about 60 bucks.

Try the Navwar range (it is what we use). Cheap (£50 will buy you more than enough for the four main fleets, civilian ships and subs included), and you can paint vast numbers in just a couple of hours.

Could you fix us up with some photos? I looked at the Navwar site but they have no pictures, and I'm a visual sort of person... :wink:

The Navwar home site doesn't have photos! There's links to some pics here:

I don't suppose anyone has looked at a modern variant, to tie in with the new battlefield; evolution game? :?

I know there has been a discussion on the bf; evo pages of a wwII variant, which would tie in with VAS. :lol:

 

[thedrake]

Was wondering if there any pics of the counters?

Have two sets of the Babylon 5 counter sheets and Love them.Hope the VaS counters are done the same way (top-down view as that is my preference.) If so count me down for VaS!

Thanks,

some late ships in WW2 did have radar directed guns...how will this be handled? do they get to pre-measure?
