Destroyer Actions


I'm putting together my plans for 2021 at the moment, one of which will be an early war Royal Navy vs Kriegsmarine project in 1/3000th scale, with an emphasis on the Norwegian campaign. This will require some new coastal terrain for a start but has the advantage of only needing a relatively small selection of ships, many of which are destroyers or light cruisers. I thought I'd do some further research for this, so I'm now reading Destroyer Actions, which is specifically focused on the first year of the war. My grandfather was a PO wireless telegrapher on HMS Duncan at the time too, so it's a subject with a bit of a connection, making it all the more interesting!

  1. Will you model the fjords? Seeing how steep sided they are you might be able to create a backdrop rather than a 3D model.

  2. I have some cunning plans for that!
