As you rightly point out though, the strategic side was a gem and I shall certainly use it (or a variation thereof) for my own purposes.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-49342872176306015872011-07-03T22:47:35.841+01:002011-07-03T22:47:35.841+01:00DC

The tactical side had its moments but does look dated today. However, the strategic side was a gem - the map was great!<br /><br />Enjoy<br /><br />PDPeter Douglashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14118894381672707297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-5362399830744557372011-07-02T14:08:19.124+01:002011-07-02T14:08:19.124+01:00Hi Mark,

The tactical side is a little simple compared to many mainstream naval sets but that is no problem IMHO!<br /><br />If you cant find a player then I have a PBM kit and would be happy to oblige or failing that, if you want to offload it let me know!<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-67025065199559776972011-07-02T12:18:26.397+01:002011-07-02T12:18:26.397+01:00Got this mouldering away in a cupborrd.
