What's on your workbench for October?

[Diamondback]

Now thinking of my November workbench DB. Do you have a suggestion for an Ares ship that would do for one of the smaller US Frigates. Something that would not need a lot of alteration as I have a lot of other chores stacking up for next month.
Rob.

Off the top of my head, for the moment I would just use an unmodified SGN103 straight from the box as an American 12pdr 32. American shipbuilding techniques were largely just iterating on English tradition and custom, so there would be a certain expectation of "family resemblance" if you will. For a 9pdr 28, same model but weaker stats. These are just "interim" suggestions, though; part of why I'd go "repaint/reflag only" is to keep options open for the future.

So that buys you:
SGN103 Amazon as 12pdr 32's...
1776 Hancock, Raleigh
1776 Randolph, Warren
1798 Baltimore
1799 Essex

SGN101 Concorde as 1799 ex-FR Insurgent

SGN103 Amazon as 28's and a 30:
30 1799 General Greene
28 1776 Providence, Trumbull
28 1799 Adams
28 1799 Boston
28 1799 John Adams

Cards on the table, if Ares gave me free hand and a commitment to stay the course this is how I'd roadmap out the US oceanic fleet in SGN:
1. USN 74's Special Pack - Independence/Washington/Franklin
2. USN Humphreys 44 mainline release - President/Guerriere, United States/Java, HMS President/?
3. USN 36/38 - Constellation/Philadelphia, Congress/Chesapeake, HMS Chesapeake/?
4. CN 32 - Hancock/Raleigh, Randolph/Warren, HMS Raleigh/HMS Iris
5. CN 28 - Providence/Trumbull, Virginia/1799 John Adams, HMS Providence/HMS Virginia
6. USN 28 - ?
7. USN 26/24 - ?
8. USN Sloop - Peacock/Erie, Wasp/Ontario, Frolic/?, HMS Florida
9. if length allows (unsure if they make 28m minimum), schooners Enterprise/Vixen
CN's are AWI-era Continental Navy like Thorn/Atalanta and Bonhomme Richard.
