    Just ordered my first 4 sets also.
    Send a SASE & I'll send you my flags and you can figure out what to do with them.

    I'm not looking for everyone's flags. I was wondering if people are going to come up with different flags and put them on the ship or forget the flags altogether.

    I am planning to either 1) attach the ensign to the rigging (paintbrush method) or 2) stick it onto a wire sticking up from the deck. White ensign for my Royal Navy.

    Hi Guy's
    Hope this helps. After rigging (as far as you wish) Add flag to a line from the back of the Spanker yards

    Brian, I'll be putting the appropriate national flag on most of my ships using the method that Rory has posted photos of. I'm not particularly fond of the plastic flag that's part of the original sculpts.

    There's also been discussion of other ways to distinguish ships on the playing field, but I don't think I've seen any examples of that posted yet?
