I am coming to that conclusion as well Lee. You are an ex Navy man so I will take that as an official "Yes a Destroyer is the Battleship of today."
 

No problems Ian if it's not what you want as a battle ship I'll give it a miss, but if your one short of the number required just drop me a line.

You are welcome to join with that one.

Changed the title to a more Modern frame of mind. :smiling3:


So it is Battleships or Destroyers.

Count me in.  It takes me a good six to nine months to complete a boat, I have got the USS Indianaplolis on the go at the moment, which should be finished before the end of the year.  I wanted an excuse to get the Dreadnought.  I also have the USS New York 1/350, USS Arizona 1/200, which are cruisers, which I believe can be classed as small battleships.  WIll they fit into this GB?

All fine with me. Big boats with guns.
I just really want to avoid the Aircraft carriers, Supply ships, Assault ships and the like.

So we are getting close!
What do you all think to a start On 1st Jan and then we can all have a full year to build. I can already see a few names that are in other GB's starting 1st Jan, myself included O.o
So I dont think it too long a time....

Although I'm not a ship builder, I'm kinda interested in this idea Ian.


If this goes for a year then I might be tempted, I've never built one before.

Well We have all seen that you both have the skills and the patience and I am sure that we will help where we can. 
 


Can we put you both down ...on the list that is. :smiling3:

Corvette maybe!!!!


Can I join with this Ian :smiling3: ?.It's 1/350.

Well this is going so far of the original idea <Battleship> I can only say yes. You can enter with these

Now I will just clear the desk and start again:


Any Fighting SHIP that is NOT an aircraft carrier or assault ship. Any scale from 1/350 and up to 1/35 !
Battleship, Destroyer, Frigate, Corvette, And all the rest. As long as it is not An Aircraft carrier or assault ship. Or Hovercraft :P   Or Landing Boat. :P  Or MTB :P


:P :P
