Looking forward to this one. Hopefully there will be a deluxe edition with PE and wooden deck, like they've done before.

Cheerts!

This looks really good. What's even better is that it has a waterline option!

Oooo, I'd like to get my hands on this one... But since the Academy Importer for Switzerland is a friend of mine, I can probably get it cheaper here than paying postage, now that USPS has doubled their international prices...

I could ask him and see if I can get a sample to review, then you can use the one you got for a different purpose (Subscriber free kit draw?).

Cheers!
Stefan
