Thanks for the link, lovely setup.

Sometimes I wonder if superb show games like that frighten off people new to the hobby…
It can be a bit intimidating, but then the wargaming eye-candy books sell well.

Check out the aeronef battle on the "Yours in a whire wine sauce" website.

I think it'll convert anyone who is not into nefs into a fan.

Didn't see it in person but looks an absolute cracker of a game

I know what you mean but it gives us all a target to aim for. So frightening maybe..inspiring certainly!

NickH: Can you explain briefly how altitude affects the game. I imagine it relates to line of sight?

That's maybe a bit off topic for this thread so I'll write up something for my blog and post a short summary here when it's ready

The ARA Rivadavia a hybrid battleship-carrier conversion is ready

Okay, I DID try to subtly suggest JimBibbly post images here, but this is a mid-thread page with the start of some smashing 'nefs.

This is page 3, and I think they start up again about page 7.

Thanks for the suggestion but that thread is too much of a mess for a sticky. I shall take some beauty shots of them all and post them here if you like

We ran the latest play-test of Full Neff v3 on Sunday.

My French fleet was comprehensively defeated by the Spanish 


But it was a great game despite my defeat

Incredibly late for a followup, I'll admit, but the answer is YES!

Also, I know it's been mentioned elsewhere, but I've just seen Ironclad's Scout Aeronef for the first time just recently. *blush*

Me too, very cool, but I'd hate to be a deckhand on that !
No handrails 

[Bezzo]

Velcro soles on your shoes maybe? As long as there is plenty on the deck you'd be okay.

Played my first game of Aeronef the other week with a set of home grown rules.
