Hmmmmmmm........

On the one hand, I've wanted a WWII naval game for forever.

On the other, I really don't need another game I'll play like once or twice.

On the other, it's 1:1800, so the models will be nice and small. (Kinda - a little math tells me the Yamato would still be like 15cm long.)

On the other, the models are all resin and... don't look all that great?

Although maybe I've just been spoiled by years of drooling over GHQ's models (which are at 1:2400 even), comparing anything to which is a bad idea.

So, I dunno. I'm glad the game exists, but probably won't buy it, heh.
Feel free to call me Dave!
