Lovely! Great to see so many ships coming together.

Currently, I’m looking for an expansion option for my Basilean fleet (already have twice the starter set fleet plus one abess) and while the logical expansion would be a Dictator as soon as it comes out, I’m also eyeing the smaller ships.

The only thing is, I already have four Elohi ships and, frankly, I don’t need anymore. All booster options also contain one elohi ship plus two/three others. Is there another way of getting the ships?

Cheers.

Yeah, know what you mean about the ship sets. I’d like a couple of extra panthers, but really don’t need the others.

EBay or try to see if you could sort a swap deal etc out via FB group or similar

I think everyone would like to have a couple extra panthers. :slight_smile: They seem remarkable good for their point cost.

Edit: I’ve looked at the ship. It may be possible to convert an Elohi ship into a Panther, by replacing the angel on the bow with a panther head and a bow sprit. I’ve not actually done this, but may try it later, as soon as my 3rd and 4th elohi arive. The size and sail setup is the same.

Nice work as always @Sceleris, and i thought i was fast, but you are Usain Bolt fast :-p and great detail too

@Sceleris how did You make the bases? They look great! Also - which models did You use for Your Seamonsters?
Thanks!

Poundland tile grout! Slap some on the base and plonk the ship on it - roughly form wave. :wink:

Most of the sea monsters are from warlord’s black seas terrors of the deep set, plus a shark & octopus from nolzurs/WizKids d&d range

Sorry, I am not from UK - what’s “Poundland tile grout”? Some kind of putty?

Spackle in the US? Just pre-mixed adhesive wall filler etc - and just a cheap generic brand rather than anything specific

Poland, Europe :slight_smile: Is it based on plaster, gypsum?

I have no idea what that is :slight_smile: I am trying to find a continental equivalent but without ingredients it’s really hard :slight_smile:

dukeadam: It’s what you use to glue tiles to floors/walls, or use in the space between tiles, it seems like.

The adhesive/paste that is used in the space between tiles is known as “grout”.

It is different to the actual tile sticking adhesive paste I think. :crazy_face:

Individual ships will be available on the Mantic website at some point soon.
