Warlord Games had a little problem with the shipping as they are sending on the "wake markers" as soon as they get them, which all-in-all as there is plenty of reading and assembling to be done in the meantime.
Myself a veteran 1/600 Skytrex range I am looking forward to see how it plays and hope for a game or two over the Christmas period and early New Year. I think it is a "Game in a Box" to my mind. I cannot see myself running after the "bigger items" as they would be almost too big to get on table (admittedly there are some "big" 1/200 - 1/350 - 1/400 model ships about). I cannot see myself travelling far outside of the North Sea as the other theaters have "lesser appeal" (famous last words). I think January's WI may carry some more Cruel Seas ships which is good news even if they are repeats!

The plastic models that are due with the January issue of WI are USN PT boats.
Oooh
Now that will be interesting!
I did not see the WI in the WH Smith shops I looked in
I will have to ask a friendly game shop owner to put a copy aside for me
The yanks did fight in The Channel with their PT Boats in 1944!
May be a bit early to see WI on the shelves yet - may be this time next week. I've just got the starter set - quite impressed. As you say PPT boats saw action in the Channel.
I think the early birds to the newsagents will snap up these worms as they are worth more than the cover price of the magazine, as I would quite happily doubled up magazines for another sprue of Vospers
I must admit I thought Cruel Seas would be right up your street. Have fun and have a wonderful game-filled Christmas mate!
You read me like a book!
I am in multi-scaled naval madness from the big to small

Likewise Whisperin Al have a good 'un!
