Title: Wharfs
Post by: martin goddard on October 29, 2018, 10:15:23 PM
Stewart has  commissioned some wharfs from Warbases. They are in 6" lengths. they have a 1cm height and are MDF. Anything to add Stewart??

That sounds like a great initiative, and a good application of MDF.

Pictures would be nice in due course please, Stewart!

They were made by Warbases, I have asked them if they would list them on their website.

Look forward to seeing them on the WWW tables.

That will be good Stewart, whats the retail price going to be?

I bought 8  x 6" pieces, with postage £20, very easy to assemble

Sounds really good Stewart.

Have my ship game holders made and are in use. Made by Warbases as well.

Have contacted Warbases, if you want the jetty pieces then you will need 4 x 6" pieces for the land game. When you contact Warbases by email mention my name and the jetty pieces and they will do the rest. They are not putting them on there site as they are going to be part of a kickstarter package starting in November for 28mm Chinese

Are these "sabots" for the ship models, or the "papers", on which you can put crew, guns, sails, etc?

These are for the papers in the ship game.

Ah ha - thanks Les.

How do you order them - are they the same as Stewart's? I don't see anything on their website (but maybe I've just been looking in the wrong place)

Simon they were a special made to order item. You could wait until the games weekend and look at all the options that people are using and take it from there.

Thanks Stewart - that sounds like an eminently sensible approach!

I guess in due course we should ask Warbases to produce a standard version under their rule-specific items.
