Ahead of the release of Warlord's Cruel Seas game, Wargames illustrated as a free plastic sprue on the cover of the December issue (just out).
Note there are two types of freebie, so look through the mags to get the one you want, I picked up the sprue that has Vosper MBT's.
These are 1/300 scale and the ships shown here are 3" long, the other one being given away is longer, say 4 to 5".
As well as the freebie, the issue looks quite good, so if you are passing WH Smith (high street newsagent in the UK), it might be worth you popping in, I can't see these being available for long.
I have a photo up on my Commanders webpage if anyone is interested. LINK

Thanks for the heads up Norm :)
I picked up mine today, but unfortunately they only had S Class Aboard in my WHSmiths...
We got the Vospers on ours, give me a shout if anyone wants them.
YARG! YES PLEASE!
No worries Will, drop me an email to remind me and I'll get that put in the post on Mon/Tues.
Thank you. :D
Our WH Smiths had two copies left about 4pm - both with Vospers. Obviously I bought one!

Looked into my local Smith's (Bristol Broadmead) today, magazines still available - 1 German and 6 British.
I managed to resist . . .
Newsagent in the Gyle Centre in Edinburgh had half a dozen of each.
Picked up a copy with the S38 & S100 to read if I wound up kicking my heels in the solicitor's office. Haven't even removed the plastic wrap yet!
If anyone has the German set spare, a mate is after them...

I can send them in a Jiffy bag, if you pm me with your address.
I'll bung you Kerry's address later.
Just saw this so took a nosey about the Warlord website.
Interesting idea, but I'm resisting the temptation to dive into yet another sector.
Will be fascinated to see how it works.
1/300 seems like an overly generous scale, but these guys are happily selling 28mm Jagtigers, so there must be some punters with a lot of space.
In a fit of post funeral "buggrit it's only money" I pre-ordered the rules only option.
If they're any good I plan to expand the 1/600 scale NW Europe Theatre naval stuff I already have. Given I only have British stuff at the moment it seems like games would be rather more interesting with the addition of some Heroics & Ros 1/600 Coastal Waters German stuff :)

Mike, I've got a ton of WW2 coastal ships that I'm going to move on sooner than later. Not sure what scale they are so I'll hunt them out and see.
