    Default My ships...

    Rob raised the question of how many ships i have. It turns out it's 97 counting the two wrecks and the Langton merchant.

    Furthest back is the Spanish. First rates left third rates right.
    Then there's two rows of Téméraires, flanked by two Constitutions and two wrecks.

    In front of those are British first rates flanked by French 64 and two British 50:s on the left and a heavy 74 and two 80 gun ships to the right. The heavy 74 is a razeed three decker and the two 80-guns are my stretched Téméraires that fill the Tonnant spot until they can release them.

    The French first rates comes next.

    Then there's the British 74s. To the very left of those are my two merchants. One converted 40 gun Hebe and the other a Langton medium(?) merchant.

    Next there's 40 gun frigates to the left and French built 32 gun frigates to the right. A little alone to the right are my shortened 28 gun Surprise and my 44 gun Indefatigable razee.

    The very first row is sloops to the left and Amazon 32 gun frigates to the right. Far right is my converted brig and bomb ketch.


    As you can see I have most of the third rates. How are your composition? I haven't separated them in countries as I can switch flags on most ships of the line. How do you do?

    Sadly only half is painted and rigged, but I'm working on it.

    It certainly is a very impressive display of power Jonas.
    Only three more to reach that magical number.
    I have one of each ship named on both sides of the cards, excepting the Frigates in the Kick Starter, and the other three Spanish Firsts on the back of the cards. Even with several conversions and merchants plus two ships on the stocks in my dockyard, I cant get near to that number.
    Congratulations.
    Rob.

    Sadly they are their own enemies.


    Rob, I'm not sure it's a cause for celebration. I think it's a sign that I'm the only one to have the ships even though I can get friends to play.

    Ah yes, I wish there was some one here to play. I enjoy playing my son, but he is 8 and I want some hard competition once in a while.

    A massive and wonderful accumulation of ships. I've never actually counted my numbers. I'd probably go into shock.

    Many, in fact, are still in the original SoG Commodore KS cardboard boxes they shipped in.

    No you're not far behind. You're even ahead in some ways I think. Haven't you painted and rigged almost all your ships? I'm very impressed by that.

    I do have some unpainted Langtons and some boats but those don't count until they are at least based for Sails of Glory.
