Thank you for the A.A.R.'s , Rob. It looks like the British needed H.M.S. St George.

Attachment 32546

Thank you for those AARs, Rob. :salute:

Today I was able to up load my pictures and will add some more spice to the battle of the Nile.

The "Band of brothers" did a great job. :clap:

I look forward to seeing the pictures Sven.
Does your comment mean that next time we will get spiced Rum in our glasses? :rum:
Chris please take note for your Trafalgar game next year.:wink:

Also thanks for the Rep Sven. Not many people are using that facility anymore.

Indeed Dave. She would certainly have come in handy especially if armed with a few ground to Air Lance missiles.

Rob.

Just looked at your superb photos of the Nile Sven.
I have unashamedly plundered a few which I missed out on myself.
One which I must reproduce here is the ship donated most kindly by Nightmoss for the action.
For a ship on fire it is awesome.

Attachment 32552

Just a pity you cant see the fire blinking.

So will I do. :wink:

Yes - thank you Nightmoss. This burning miniature contributed a lot to the scenario.

Lucky HMS Vanguard set it on fire. :surrender:

Lucky!

With Rafer J Larwood at the helm it was a miracle my dear Comte.
Bligh.

Rob, I've seen the photos from the album and I really liked the village set in the arid zone. Very well done. :clap: :beer:

Thank you very much Julián. I take that as a compliment coming from the Maestro of terrain design himself.
Rob.

To wind up my pictures for the weekend, here are a few I managed to take of Alfonso's game on Friday afternoon, whilst I was doing Neil's China 1938 game.
