Think it all started when I was 9-10 years old.  Watched They Were Expendable on television.  Little ships destroying really big ships.

The next step was buying MTB a long, long time ago.  Really enjoyed it.  I don’t have any idea where it went.

At some point, I bought a box of  1/700 torpedo boats.  Painted them, but nothing more.  A few years ago, I started buying up some other 1/700 ships and, using Pit Road buildings, constructed a whole naval base.  Then came the planes.  I culled all kinds of rules, and came up with my own . After all that was all finished, all that was put away.  Typical.

Now they/it/them are back.

Set up the dining room table with an old, old fleece ocean “mat”.  Slapped together unfinished kits, and muddled my way through fabricating torpedo rules.

Half the fun (or more) was getting there.  Lots of interesting stuff floating around about PT boats, their crews, doctrine,  actions, and torpedos.  Granted the torpedo information is about submarines, but it forms a basis for putting together a rules structure.  And, I can’t find the link for the life of me.  But, isn’t ptboat.org wonderful?  Oh….here’s the link.

Ready to playtest a bit.
