    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.

    Good find Dave.
    Although not as good as it looks at face value because most items have a notify me when available codicil, the following do seem to be in stock.

    Constitution, Victory, Queen Charlotte, Royal George, Royal Sovereign, Swan, and Proserpine.

    A pity about the ship mats, extra chits and coastline etc, but for those wanting Mayday card sleeves a reasonable price on those as well as the ships.
    No idea what the mark up for postage is, however.

    Four more ships. 3 Spanish, one American, and one British. All good prices excepting the British which I think is a bit overpriced.

    Firepower Games have 1 H.M.S. Africa/ H.M.S. Vigilant, 1 Thorn/ Atalanta and 2 Starter Set package deals (a Starter Set plus 3 more ships and a Coastal Batteries Terrain Pack) available. https://firepowergames.com/product-category/sog/

    I imagine that these might sell very quickly.

    Have you seen the shipping costs Dave? I looked at Constitution and with shipping it took it up to $79.

    Yes, I saw the cost. You would need a large order to benefit from this store. I wonder what Asmodee think of this development.

    Need me to smuggle you a Miniature Market Constitution, Rob? +$8 in shipping and tax plus whatever it costs to load a heavy frigate in an airplane for a trip across the Atlantic.

    I went through my fleet, and had this. She was waiting to become my United States, but has seen no attention. The cards are unopened. The ship has been taken out and looked at. There is some sawdust that has infiltrated the box. I could ship this tomorrow or get you a brand spanking new one in a few days?

    That one will do fine Dobbs, all the more so as you have handled it yourself.
