(...) I'll have to have a look at this also. I'm not absolutely wedded to a campaign game with ship upgrades (even in an 8 hour game, they barely come into play). Adding the other aspects of the campaign game (scenario islands and such) would be (...) (21 years ago, 7-Oct-04, to lugnet.gaming)

(...) Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but ya. (...) Yes, the swivel cannon is quite handy in a stern chase. Perhaps this is a flaw in the rules, or perhaps it's a good thing. Except that I think a class 6 against 6 class 1s can blow 2 or three (...) (21 years ago, 6-Oct-04, to lugnet.gaming)
