    Very nice, Vol. You've created a healthy supply for future endeavors.

    I've taken a break from ship model building to focus on creating some dioramas to actually display existing ships. The prospects of any face to face gaming is non existent at this point so I might as well create some semi permanent displays to enjoy the ships outside of storage boxes

    I see. Well, you best get cracking then. You've got a lot of ships laid up that need final fitting out!

    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.

    Of those of his I have, I would tend to agree with you Vol.
