What's wrong with me? :-)
« on: December 17, 2015, 07:04:24 AM »
Just feel an urge to spill it out...
 In our WM campaing we have been looking for some naval battle system to widen our possibilities. In mid November, we agreed on Uncharted Seas as some of the guys already purchased few ships and rules to se how it looks and works. Two weeks later knowing roughly the rules, I was ready to get myslef a fleet just to find out the UCS ships gone OOP and are no longer avilable...
   As there is not too much of an option, I shifted my focus on Man o War as I like the familiar enviroment and the basic core rules are pretty much the same as UCS...  For the minis are so hard to get, I was thinking about alternatives or eventualy builidng some ships myself. But the information about the real size of the models and possible substitutions are so hard to get.. Three days ago I finaly found my web page! Full of battle reports, scratchbuild stuff and more... And 'ere we go! theseaofclaws.blog.fr 

"Dear user,

It makes me wanna cry out...   ;D

I believe they combined their blogs.....they are just they yahoo group right now.  A few others were "shut down" as well with the French one you just mentioned.

https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/theseaofclaws/info

this should get you there.  Honestly, I don't like the yahoo groups thing and find it very confusing and difficult to navigate, maybe you will find that it works great.  ;)

if you are patient, ebay is your best friend with man o'war.  here in the states great deals just keep coming up because most everyone has given up on selling them I feel.

I'm aware of the the Yahoo group, but as you said... Never had anytnihg common wiht Yahoo until last week, when I learned the main MoW community gathers there. To orientate there is such a pain, that I rather give up...
 That was why I loved the blog....
