One of John Roy's tower ships he designed for the Confederate navy... 3D printed @ 1/600 scale... the two guns were pivoted around in side the turret towers. It's armor was 4 inches of iron (2 layers of 2 inch plates) and 16 inches of wooden backing. HI stats coming soon...

Nice ship Ken.
ACW riverine is great for the variety.
Are you going to count it as a turreted ship for points?

My name is not Ken... I was thinking the guns could be pivots, that si what they were and fired out gun ports all along the tower (like a turret)...

Commander Klank, I think Martin may be gently encouraging you to leave a name we can call you by here

Whether it's your real name or not doesn't matter, but it makes things feel a little more friendly.

Simon (which may or may not be my own real name
