Firstly well done Ruckdog for the videos. I am still unconvinced I wont choose to play the new rules unless there's a big growth in the new game here locally ( Which there is not as yet, however we only have a few starter boxes in the FLGS round here ) nevertheless, this has been a clear walkthrough of the system that is clear and excellent.
Secondly, I'm starting to warm to the new Russian/Commowealth models, but otherwise not. The Latin league seem nice ( Especially as Hellenic Kingdom in 2.5 ) but I still feel the Spartan models had more style and a better grasp of how ships work, which the new Prussians are the most extreme example of no idea.
