Syrtis Major Royal Naval Air Squadron
1 x Reliant class aerial cruiser escorted by
1 x Dauntless and 1 x Aphid gunboats
Oenetrian Allied Fleet
2 x Whisperdeath large kites
2 x Hull cutters
1 x Skyfire Screw Galley
The British formation manoeuvres to windward to maintain the range |
The allied Martian fleet deploys |
The Reliant and Dauntless catch a Martian Kite and take her under heavy fire |
The Martians move upwind to close the range |
The engagement becomes general |
A long range Martian shot cripples the Reliant's lift mechanism, and her escorts scramble to screen her |
Martian Screw Galleys break through the British escorts and grapple with the Dauntless |
Swarmed by the combined enemy crews, the British Marines and sailors fight valiantly but futilely |
And so the Oenotrian Fleet gained a decisive Victory over their hated British foes, but they would soon learn that the resolve of the Earthman was not so easily broken...

I didn't realize cloudships of mars used maps with so few hexes. I guess the movement ranges are short?
Top stuff. Nice scratch built ships.
Top stuff Paul, good AAR of a good looking game. I like Your miniatures.
😃
Thank you all, it was indeed fun!
Dave - worked well for squadron actions (max move was 6, max range was 8 for the 6" mount) but I can see it might be a bit cramped for bigger fleet actions
G’Day Paul,
I cant believe I missed seeing this - what a wonderful looking game and the models are fantastic! Please pass on my congratulations to Andrew for his amazing work and I would love to get some good close ups of the models.
All the best,
DC
