Hrolf the Cunning Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hi folks, I had a quick search and couldn't find the specific answer. I was wondering (if allowed) if anyone could give me an idea of size for the different categories of vessels for the purposes of scratch building. Sorry if this has already been covered elsewhere.

atin Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Hello. Battleship, emperors class = 13 cm without the front canon, with 14 cm. cruisers, gothic class = 9 cm without battering ram, with 10 cm. light cruisers, dauntless = 7 cm without forward lance, with 8 cm. destroyer, cobra class = 3.5 cm escort, Falcion class = 5 cm source my own battlefleet. i don’t have any other type of ship, so i hope this helps. if you need anything, another set of measurements i will see what i can do. the point where the ship contacts the base is important, do you need that? And looking forward to your work. :) Cheers, atin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atin Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Hi, I hope i am not to late. but here we go. battleship, L 13.5 by W 5.2 by H 6.8 (extreem points. like tip to rear and left to right near the wing part.) main body W 2.4 main hanger point. from the back 4.0 to the base contact. is this what you seek? if so i can measure the rest of my fleet. atin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teetengee Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 If I remember correctly though, the rules completely ignore the model and everything is based on its stem, so you shouldn't need to worry about it too much. (I once proxied lobster shells for tyrannids when one of my friends wanted to try it out years ago.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrolf the Cunning Posted August 21, 2014 Author Share Posted August 21, 2014 Thanks guys, that's all very heplful. @atin - thanks for the offer, it would be great if you could give some more dimensions. @Teetengee - in all likelihood the chances of me playing a game in the forseeable future is pretty slim, it is more the visual/narrative side that appeals to me at this stage (although I would love for it to be functional game-wise as well). I like the idea of having an accompanying fleet for most of the forces I am working on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
