This is a group of mates who have been playing wargames together in Hobart, Tasmania since the early '70s. HQ is Jim's place in Battery Point, but games are played at several venues in Tasmania, Canberra & even England. If you want to get hold of us, please email campcromwell@iinet.net.au

That looks gorgeous, what form of the rules are they using? Large battle rules or slogging away using the detailed ones?
Slogging away. Jim's rules are very good indeed. We have one sailor amongst us who tends to do all the moves'whilst we give general guidance.
We now have 40 ships with 16 Brits, 12 French and 12 Spanish. The Brits tend to win if we limit time. Most ships are wooden laminate (bandsaws help) with toothpick masts, wire yardarns (ex Maxedonian phalangite pikes) and French Chablis wine foils for the sails. Pity us : all the wine we had to drink.
A battle is usually 10 turns over two days (2 hour battles, after which we reture to the garden for tea and coffee).
