Age of Sail-Top Downs-?
« on: November 27, 2018, 05:53:36 pm »
Greetings,

I have been interested in trying out the rules for Trafalgar or Osprey's Age of Sail.  However, before i invest I wanted to make sure I liked the gaming experience.  I have never really done too much Age of Sail stuff previously. 

Typically, I like to try to use paper templates to get me started to make sure I like the game play of the period.  Therefore, I took to the internet to find some paper top downs.  I was shocked to find none readily available.

I acknowledge that my Google-Fu might be weak so do any of you know a good resource for some paper top downs for Age of Sail?

Thanks for the help.

Have you tried Junior General?

I did, but I mostly saw 74s and 100s, nothing really smaller.

Great stuff, but I did not see Age of Sail?  Did I miss them?

No, Topside hasn't done any age of sail stuff (yet). During our interviews with them, the Topside minis guys have said that they have gotten several requests for age of sail counters, so it's somewhere on their list!
