If they can't make them as complete new sprues, they'd be better off turning out destroyers that are frigate sprues plus larger resin replacement stuff, same as battlecruisers from cruiser sprues.

I don't think that is going to happen. The retail battlecruisers are meant to be all new sculpts rather than upgrade components so I would expect any more ships to be all new stuff from here on out.

Honestly, sight unseen I prefer the way they've already done the battlecruisers to new all-resin sculpts. Guess I'll wait and see.

The 10mm scale Avenger is up for sale, short of space or short of money?

So when they say Monitor, they mean the UK concept of a Monitor and not the US one right?

Slow moving, tough and a big gun is my understanding. So...British?

Not really all that tough. Also quite small, designed exclusively for shore bombardment using a single battleship turret, as opposed to the US concept of a monitor, being the Monitor and Virginia, ie designed for ship to ship combat using Frigate sized guns.

In game terms it'd be a destroyer with a battleship bombardment gun vs a light cruiser with destroyer guns.

e: Not that the Us didn't use those 20th century monitors, because they did, and they called their LCMs converted to river gunboats for patrolling the Mekong monitors too, I'm just talking about popular public perception

I don't have any Osmium washers handy unfortunately.

Even as a temporary display base it's bothering me, but I hope they come up with a large regular DFC base for them when they're on sale.
