I've been thinking about the possibilities for WW1 fleet actions in smaller scales than 1/2400th recently, as it would be far too expensive to even attempt anything in 1/3000th scale alone. The Ark Royal 1/4800th range looks interesting but I can see it becoming a real money pit, especially as the various packs don't necessarily match up with specific battles. I'd like to replay the Dogger Bank or Goeben pursuit, for example, but would need about six packs and would have a lot of surplus models left over. I may shoot an email off to Barry Hilton to ask if he's thought about bundling models into battle packs?
Hi Jim,
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of the scale but agree with your point about the packs. Scenario specific would be good for sure but for now I shall hold fire.
All the best,

What about the Hallmark 1/6000 WW1 ships? Magister Militum sells them: https://www.magistermilitum.com/manufacturer/hallmark-1-6000-1-1250-ships-more.html?cat%5B0%5D=60263
ReplyDeleteA great idea that, Jim. Seconded!
