Remember, no such thing as stupid questions only stupid answers. :) Gonna guess your username is a Battletech reference... one of the guys I GM'ed with on Wizkids Pirates in the early 2000s with was into BT/MechWarrior and a hardcore Clans fan, so that might be where the name came up. (He was more Jade Falcons though.)
Known Issues with models...
*Special Pack HMS Victory should have a lateen mizzen for her 1765 as-built hull. (SGN108 is as refit just before Trafalgar.)
*Special Pack USS Constitution is ~22 scale feet overlength--my bad personally, time crunch finding data and I failed to properly cross-check the primary reference against typos. (It DID seem amiss to have a frigate with a claimed length longer than a typical First Rate...)
*Waves 3 and 4 are all closer to 1/1200 than 1/1000.
*Waves 3/4 Spanish ships are deliberately overpowered. (Designer intent--don't look at me, I just go find the numbers not crunch 'em.)
*Wave 4 French East Indiamen are all specifically sculpted with Bonhomme Richard's unique refits. As-built the quarterdecks need to be cut back somewhere behind the mizzenmast.
*Wave 4 Bucentaure should have a gaff mizzen, not a lateen. (Stated reason was something about sharing mast tooling IIRC.)
*Wave 4 Spanish frigates are significantly better one one side than the other. The weak card is for a 12-pdr 34, the strong card is an 18-pdr 44... but the names aren't always matched to historical role.
