Great, this is definitely one of those ideas for games that doesn't require everyone to bring stuff!

Probably not the same Hornblower that Norm and Purps read
Outrageous.
And Horatio can go blow his own horn - Jack Aubrey is the only literary captain you need!

The BBIB rules might work brilliantly then if we are going handful of ships each. We should be able to write a great narrative.

Right I can’t resist any longer, I’m about to order some frigates.

And just so you know, I went on a boat in Norfolk just a couple of weeks ago and I was praised for my first class seaman skills by all the sailors.

What precisely were you doing with your semen on a boat in Norfolk?

Make sure you order the frigates with the extra small guns.

Going with Langton?

I’m not sure... GHQ is my favourite... but
I don’t actually mind the Navwar models, especially when you consider the price difference. Unless your some kind of tiny master modeller I’m not sure if the added detail matters.

I have held off for now - partly because if they arrive I fear I will be banished from the house since I’ve been hugely self indulgent on the hobby side recently!

You'll need to order some thread and mesh too, which could cause concern.

I'm not sure i'd rig them beyond Langtons predone ratlines.....life and my patience is proably too short.....plus if you make a hash of it they look worse than unrigged.

Nah I’m going balls deep into the thread and rat lines.
I have small fingers
