Ian M's Battleship/Destroyer. GB Idea

[Ian M]

Well it's a ship and it could go into battle.  9_9

Hmm... What do you others say, I suppose it could open it up a bit to others as well. I mean it is I guess the modern times version of a battleship.... Do they even have modern super dreadnaugt battleships these days? 


But still a no on aircraft carriers and assault ships though...

[Ian M]

If it runs for long enough I'd be tempted.

I suggested six months to a full year...

No problems Ian if it's not what you want as a battle ship I'll give it a miss, but if your one short of the number required just drop me a line.

OK. I've got the Tamiya Musashi in the stash which has climbed almost to the top of my list on a couple of occasions. Count me in if it's a 'go' Ian - I think even I could do something in 6 months!

Can we have a confirmation from the maybe's and also if we are OK with Opening it up to Destroyers...

Im OK with Destroyers and smaller warships

[Lee W]

The destroyer is today's battleship isn't it?  O.o

Just my pennies worth

I am coming to that conclusion as well Lee. You are an ex Navy man so I will take that as an official "Yes a Destroyer is the Battleship of today."
 

No problems Ian if it's not what you want as a battle ship I'll give it a miss, but if your one short of the number required just drop me a line.

You are welcome to join with that one.

Changed the title to a more Modern frame of mind.


So it is Battleships or Destroyers.

Count me in Ian.

Count me in.  It takes me a good six to nine months to complete a boat, I have got the USS Indianaplolis on the go at the moment, which should be finished before the end of the year.  I wanted an excuse to get the Dreadnought.  I also have the USS New York 1/350, USS Arizona 1/200, which are cruisers, which I believe can be classed as small battleships.  WIll they fit into this GB?

[Lee W]

Best I get myself a war canoe then!

All fine with me. Big boats with guns.
I just really want to avoid the Aircraft carriers, Supply ships, Assault ships and the like.

Updated list!:
Ian M

BBDave
Gern
Lee
Bob

So we are getting close!
What do you all think to a start On 1st Jan and then we can all have a full year to build. I can already see a few names that are in other GB's starting 1st Jan, myself included O.o
So I dont think it too long a time.... 

[papa 695]

Sounds good to me Ian.
