    As far as I know Ares has no problem with producing cards which are not a copy of the ones in production, For instance ship cards with different ships on them, or aircraft they do not make. However, they did not allow us to publish sets of the movement cards in toto. A set of cards which can be enlarged by us, can soon be reduced back to the original size by someone else. I think an example of a couple at the new size would be OK. No way am I going to risk upsetting Ares, and bringing down a blanket ban on reproducing any of their printed products.

    Rob, I'm not going to risk getting The Anchorage into jeopardy with Ares so I'll refrain from posting any photos.

    Warlord did just announce merchant ships along with schooners being released in the near future, so I might try some ship cards for fun. I also just received the Santisima Trinidad, which is massive in 1/700. Did the Stats Committee ever decide on the appropriate numbers for a ship card? I've seen no indication that Ares is going to follow up with their 1/1000 version.

    Cheers.

    Thanks for the update Jim.
    Not sure if anything definite was decided about the Santisima.
    Either, Dave Manley, DB, or Chris, Cptn. Duff may be able to enlighten you.
    Reminds me that I need to complete the one that Clipper sent me.
    Everything has been on hold for the last year whilst we sorted out the house extension.

    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.
