Hello Shipmates,
Dive 3 is now up and waiting for crew mates to man Her. I am sure we will get a full manning for the launch in January.

Hello All,
I am waiting for someone to join doing a 1/4-1/6 U-Boat.
Any of you want to explain that to the your "Significant Other": "But Honey, it is for a campaign on MSW, Honestly."
Cheers,
Bruce

One of the midgets - the Neger or Marder, or a Maiale - should be possible in 1:6. Once had a dream of a Seehund in 1:16.

Enlisted!
Plenty of choices in the stash.
How about amending the range to to direct submarine support such as, submarine submarine tenders, submarine repair ships, or (given the latest Battlefleet relase) submarine lifting vessels such as SMS Vulkan?
Just a suggestion...

Bruce,

It is not 1/6, but a 1/72 Skipjack ought to be big enough to cause some friction in any apartment/house!!
Too big at least for me not to be forced to sleep with it in our other room

Hello Guido,
I want to stay with Subs only for this campaign, I hope that is O.K. with you.

But, How about a campaign called Support Ships? With the all of the different ships out there I think you can find something that will work for that type of Campaign.
Thanks for the Idea,
Cheers,
Bruce

I am in,

Not sure what with yet, in 1/35th have Bibber & Seehund in the stash, and in 1/350th HMS Vanguard & HMS Trafalgar, might go for the Italeri X craft if it is out on time.

I'd be in with the Airfix 1:350 HMS Trafalgar. I've seen some pics of one the subs painted in a dazzle cammo so I'm very tempted to finish it in.

Greetings fellow submariners...

Well, I have a couple in the stash and I am sure building a itty bitty 1/350 submarine shouldn't hold up any of my big projects for any appreciable time.

Luckymodel had a big sale on ships and boats recently and another six or so subs are on their way to join my VIIc, Surcouf and Russian Alpha Attack Sub (Orange range Dragon offering with USS Yorktown).

Hope you all have a great Christmas and Happy New Year.

Cheers
Warren
