Thanks for the photos.
That hairy rug is an odd surface to play on, and those bevel-edged hexes must have been a nightmare for keeping models upright!
-
I can never get over just how incredible those ships look in your photos Dave. Thanks for sharing them again :). I so wish that I had bought Man O'War when it came out, it's the one GW game that I feel that I've missed out on.
-
I love the Ironfists the most. I have a squadron of the first editions, they look like little row boats with a weird half sail.
Which Con was this? I'll have to keep this in mind next year it comes around. Looks like a lot of nice games being played.
-
Glad you guys liked them.
Ya, the rug didn't do it for me. I've seen a few that look great, just not that one.
Those Iron Fists are converted from those tiny ones CJ. I basically did a prow swap with a metal war galley. The con was HAVOC: http://havoc.battlegroupboston.org/
-
by the way, what material are the sails? they look like a fabric almost on the ironfists. I regretted using just plain adhesive back paper for my pennants but I finally got them on with my new mast sprues and they look just fine. I was afraid if I went with a clothe that it wouldn't work with the scale.
-
I used canvas paper.
