| (...) Steve, I have a set of those stickers. As far as I know, those did not come with any set. They were from a idea booklet or magazine! You could use them to create a new flag if needed. The sets always came with preprinted flags. So those two (...) (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.pirates)
| | | | | Sticker Flags
|
| I bought a 6268 - Renegade Runner at the weekend, and in the box were three large pirate clip-flags, one printed and two with stickers... Did the early Pirate Sets come with stickered flags? They look quite authentic... Steve (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.pirates)

| (...) The most entertaining book I read about US subs in the Pacific was the venerable 'Pig Boats,' a popular-issue book that was as of 1992 still available in paperback. As for academic books, Morison like most was still enamoured with the (...) (24 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja, lugnet.pirates)

| (...) "Blind Man's Bluff" is a great book about the history of submarine warfare. (...) Japanese pirates during the period that the Ninja sets apply often picked up Koreans from ports they raided as part of the crew. Chris (24 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja, lugnet.pirates)

Before Hideyoshi's invasion of Korea, there was really no Japanese "navy" so ship building tended to be on a fairly small scale, except for troop transports which were very boxy. (...) extremely (...) (24 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja, lugnet.pirates)

I've read the Pacific volumes of Samuel Eliot Morison's History of US Naval Operations, but I don't remember there being too much in there about (...)

I think there's a minor difference between full-blown junks and sampans (sorry, I learned the spelling used by the US Navy during WWII--as maru traffic vanished, US subs began spending torpedoes on (...)

| (...) To the best of my knowledge, junks (later called san-pans) were Chinese/Korean in origin. I was under the impression that a majority of Japanese ships were coastal vessels, small fishing boats or galleys, designed for short journeys and (...)

| | | | | Re: pirate + ninja
|
| (...) That's a great scene! You can build some neat small ships out of non-pirate pieces - then you could do a Commodore Perry scene. Well, you have definitely inspired me - I already have my pirate crew assembled, and I'm going to start working on (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja, lugnet.pirates)
| | | | | Re: pirate + ninja

| (...) Hmm, a Ninja island for the Pirate Game... I'll have to think about how that might work into the game... Of course there's lots of opportunity for piracy and whatnot in the oriental world. In fact, that corner of the world is one area where (...) (24 years ago, 1-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja, lugnet.pirates)

There is a big Pirate Game get-together that is supposed to be happening in June, and I was thinking about the possibility of building an island inhabited by Ninja types. I would love to (...)

| (...) I probably won't be there, here are some random thoughts: 1. Which newsgroup were we supposed to followup-to? 2. If you're going to charge for playing, to cover the cost of securing Evil Stevie, charge more to play while he's GMing. Nothing (...)
