Dahlgren and Columbiad Plastic Clad Ironclads



I decided to laminate all of the counter sheets that I printed yesterday, ready to be cut out over the holidays for some self taught, instructional games of Dahlgren and Columbiad. These are all designed for Sail and Steam Navies by David Brandon via Wargames Vault, but are useable for any set of similar rules:


I think they are really top notch and an excellent way to try out some rules before investing in shedloads of lead. They're also very good value at about three quid a set, although the Danish and Prussian supplement is a little bit more expensive. I'll be using my counters for the Battle of Jasmund with Broadside and Ram as well, so its two for the price of one. Brilliant!

  1. Hello Jim, the 2018 version of the rules has an Uruguayan flag on the cover (top right), do you know if there is any historical scenario or reference to Uruguay in the rules? Thanks!
