Frigates, Sloops and Brigs


I'm re-reading this at the moment. It's a bit of a classic and packed with loads of scenario material for small ship actions in the Napoleonic Wars, a fair number of which happened a stones throw from where I am now. I enjoyed reading this book way back when and it is still just as good. I may well do some 1/2400th scale Age of Sail naval wargaming at some point, with small actions between unrated ships being the perfect portable option. I'm also doing some old school card and paper Napoleonic naval wargaming over on my other blog during the holidays, so there's some semblance of logic to my reading habits for a change:

  1. It was originally published as two separate books but now is available as a single volume. Well worth a look.
