After a longer than expected spell on the slips, the four Siegfried class ships are launched, fitted out and under way.
From l-r, Heimdall, Beowulf, Frithjof, Siegfried. |
Built between 1888 and 1894, these were an earlier type than the two Odin class that superseded them, but they shared the same unconventional configuration of two paired turrets forward and one aft. Their top speed was a leisurely 15 knots, but from all accounts they were very stable gun platforms - something I'll take into consideration in the rules.
Next project will be a kinda/sorta Heligoland Island...

The clear plastic bases and wake look very effective.
Thanks, Peter.
