I usually just snap a quick photo of the board with my phone before packing up. It makes it easy to pick up where we left off.
Older Battleships

Any good suggestions on scales and sellers to supply older, pre-war battleship and dreadnought miniatures? I am thinking designs from about 1900-1914.
I’ve been searching Shapeways, but without much luck.
Cheers!

I haven’t checked their catalogues specifically for what you’re looking for, but these two sources might work nicely. I’ve bought stuff from them and was happy with my purchases.

@CWO-Marc, thanks for the suggestions! Can you remind me of the scale of A&A warships? If I remember correctly, some Panzerschiffe stuff is too large by comparison, no?

According to knp7765, who once looked into the question of scale, “Ships = Varies from capital ships to the smaller vessels. Battleships and Carriers are smaller than 1/2400. It’s closer to 1/3000 or maybe even 1/3500. I’m not sure about the smaller vessels but they are bigger in scale. If Destroyers and Submarines were at the same scale as the Battleships, we would barely be able to see them, much less play with them on the board.”
