Using a gift voucher today I picked up a couple of discounted ships including a spare of Embuscade / Le Succes, of which I have both. Have readers any suggestions on what I could use this spare ship for and guidance on colours, ships charts/stats? She is a captured Amazon of course and the class seems large.
I have no real preference for nationality and could happily serve in French, English, Spanish or American colours.
I note Terpischore has been suggested elsewhere for USS Boston.
Well the easiest one is to just reflag as HMS Ambuscade.
As it was a captured Embuscade its reasonable to assume the paintwork will be the same.
Yes, or perhaps HMS Success. She seemed to have a very interesting career.
To be honest, at our scale and if it fits for you, you can name it any of the Amazon class frigates, most seeem to be similarly painted so you can get away with it.
I myself have done so with a few extra models giveing me Frigates like, HMS Amazon, Greyhound, Ambuscade.
So that I don't tread on your toes with the repaint of Duguay-Trouin, have you any advice as to which other British ship I could use it as Chris. That way we won't have to field duplicates of Implacable on the table at shows.

Cheers Jonas.
Looking at that list, HMS Bell-isle looks like a good contender as she had a good innings with the Brits during an interesting time period. So a bog standard English chequered paint job for her my boys.

Put another suggestion for you Rob in a new thread, Scipion and HMS Scipion
