Welcome Aboard Jeremy!
Welcome Aboard, Dean!

My family came to the US from Scotland. Hence, I would have probably been in the British Navy. My people are from Strathclyde, right on the border (Cheviots). My ancestors were cattle thieves and...

Well ummmm urummmm hmm ---Heck Yea! I guess I am smarter than I look! LOL (OK, I am being proud - my Beloved Wife is standing behind me laughing uproariously - really embarassing! LOL)
Actually, the prairie schooners could float. That is how one made some fords! I doubt that any ever had any gun ports or a "broadside", however! LOL
"Have anyone considered making customized D30 or D6? Instead of genuine numbers dice should have counter symbols.
It would take some time to make your own, but seems interesting (at least, for me ...
Not being a sailor, what is the difference between "boxhauling" and "wearing ship"? Forgive me if this is too far off topic, but I thought they were essentially the same thing.
I think one can get sets of masts from Landon designed to be markers for fallen masts. Another though would be extra sail sets from GHQ or Langdon. Heck, I think it would be possible to built some...
We have played a number of games at our FLGS and as we are planning on running Trafalgar, at some point, we have already concluded we will need several sets of the basic game. The D30 sounds like a...
Apologies for being a brainless twit (but I cannot help myself! lol), but what does "OTT" mean? Is this a campaign on a thread or another website?
Perhaps we have been playing it wrong, or I misunderstand the present rules, but I thought that once one places a maneuver card and one discovers that one is "in irons" and has to switch to a red...
I do not have rules with me right now, but as I recall the damage track specifies a loss of ability for the crew to perform actions as casualties mount up. This loss of actions means a ship cannot...
This would be a distinction without a difference. I agree that tacking was an inherently difficult proposition. Success or failure would be more a factor in crew quality and a number of other...

RE: BATFISH I have not been there since my children were 10 and 8, so I am not an authority. It was a wonderful day trip for us - well, unique at least. I cannot...
Gratz Uli!
Just thought I would mention that I have used screen for ratlines on my SOL for years. It holds up pretty well. I also experimented with sand paper - yup - you heard right. There are sheets of...
How does one "Report Aboard"? I want my little tick mark to go green like everyone else's! LOL
