Yes they are crusiers cant remember the class though. The requirement was that they fitted on a 4cm base. Can't even remember what scale they are.

Edinbrough and Belfast, last of the Town series pre WWII. Funnel position gives it away, and scale is 1/3000th

Stuff the 1/3000 - I want one in 1/144 like this:


It's 60.75inches long  - it could be my baseline  8)

But that one probiably could fire real shells! Air soft or .22 would annoy your opponent!
;D ;D ;D
Used to game with the Warriors of Loyne from Lancaster in the mid-90's, they did a Stetin game in 20mm with a scale torpedo boat under a bridge, that was big enough!

I calculate that either of the ships mentioned would be 1.4m/4' 7" long in 1:160th. Might take almost as long as the real ships to build :D
When you realise we're all mad, life makes a lot more sense.
