Got a box full of Langton ships in the stash, on the lookout for a good set of rules for age of sail
It is a matter of how much detail or fidelity you want in your game. Age of Sail takes a long time to play. If you look at the forth coming Oak and Iron from Firelock in October these are more streamlined rules where you can still have large scale battles but finish in a reasonable amount of time.
Thanks, nice to know. Don’t mind a longer turn personally but playing with a larger group regularly usually steers us towards simplicity to avoid too much down time between individual actions.
“Don’t mind a longer turn” – say the guy who survived a 9.5 hour Panzer Leader game at Gold Beach. 😀
Yup, I’m really looking forward to receiving my Oak and Iron pledge. Just wish that I could have been there at the Con to play some of it early at Firelock’s Demo table!
OTT has some video on the game from when Mike was just about to go to Kickstarter with it.
Pretty sweet!
Fighting Sail seemed pretty fast. These guys buzzed through this battle in relatively short order. The GM hinted that ALL of Trafalgar would be possible but would be a BIG game.
Lovely Ship models!!
I always love the models when they’re in line ahead, all that sail lined up …
Napoleonic naval is always a period I would play if invited to play in a game but would never consider collecting myself
Definitely seems like a heavy investment for the people who get into it.
nice naval action with great models.
We used to play “Fire When Ready” (predreadnought battleship naval) – and put little cotton ball “poofs” alongside the ships to show they had fired.
That is a big fleet.
I honestly thought it was Trafalgar at first, I recognized some of the names – but apparently Trafalgar would be even bigger than this.
Big Lad, swipe some of those, and bring then home for a “lets play”.
Th Battle of Valcour Island, maybe?
