An early plan of the fort….
….and an aerial view - probably a drone shot methinks.
The action will be fought using the revised firing arcs - this is a minor change fro the original rules and is the only one of any impact - and the optional rules will cover alternate movement and changes to the firing. I will not go into details here but I reckon that these will certainly add to the decision making!
This will be a simple battle but in my experience games involving fewer ships (or indeed any type of unit being represented) tend to focus the mind somewhat - at least that is my opinion!
In the meantime though, I will need to think about how best to model Fort Morgan. An idea I have been pondering is to make a baseline style model - David Manley suggested something similar to a DBA style camp or BUA (built up area) which seems like a good idea.
As far as this test action is concerned it will be the first time I have tried the optional rules so keeping it fairly simple seemed like a sensible approach. The plan is to fight the action over the coming weekend so I shall get the necessary paperwork ready over the next few days.
Looking forward to it!

The aerial view is more likely to be a screen capture from Google Maps than a drone shot. Looking forward to seeing how you model the fort!
Hi Mike,
You are probably right! I need to have a think about how I tackle the fort. Building it will be easy enough once I have decided on which parts I will need to model.
All the best,
DC
