Britain v France 1899

Post by martinworsey »

This is a fleet battle set in the Mediterranean in 1899.

It is based around the war scare associated with the Fashoda incident of 1898.

In order to produce ships with period flavour, I have produced a set of ship parts with era colours. I have also used the deck colours from the NWS Forum.

As ships designed in the 1890s often included open barbettes, I have produced a mini mod substituting the open barbette designs for Austrian turrets. I have produced 2 versions, version 1 does not include the turret mod (in case this is not desirable). Version 2 includes the mod.

Version 1

Ship Parts should be copied into the Graphics File (Rule the Waves 3 >Data>Graphics. They are prefixed with a z for easy identification.

Version 2
This allows Marceau class to have barbette armour and Royal Sovereign class with a barbette mount.

Based upon Steam and Iron, this was the way that Royal Sovereign was represented.
