One item that I can see already is the size of the 'castle' from Xyston. It seems to be slightly small. A scratch-built replacement might be in order.
Lastly, the Tékumel naval project got another boost with this:

I've really enjoyed Galleys and Galleons. They are a very versatile set of rules, play well, not too complex and great value for money.

ReplyDeleteGood idea - 6mm will look awesome
