Just don't try any seige stuff is all I'm saying...!

But not for this scenario.Stiùbharthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14499451142285889917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937917480632719714.post-74767649439486933812019-10-15T18:23:56.675+01:002019-10-15T18:23:56.675+01:00Would it be safe to say that the bomb ketches are ...Would it be safe to say that the bomb ketches are used historically as more of a siege weapon? That is to say, they never fight other ships directly. So the scenario is really at fault, because they should never fight other ships at all, but come in after the proper navy has swept away the covering ships, and the ketches can concentrate fire on the forts.

With the tokens, ships and especially the gorgeous mat it certainly looks appeals to me. <br />I've been thinking about trying out Naval Wargaming for years but never got to it. <br />Despite it's flaws I might give this ruleset a go. <br />Thank you for the report and such!
