This eliminates WWII battleships and the bigger cruisers. Actually, if size isn’t a concern, I have Baltimore and Takao kits in 1/96 already if anyone is interested.

2) Relatively inexpensive. This one is harder, but it...

Plus, now that Tugboat is building the Bismarck, I'll have some rusty German steel to shoot at.
Just letting you all know that I'm switching ships.

I recently posted my USS Artemis and some parts for sale here and I thought I'd post again here as it is 1/96 specific.

Captains wishing to arm torpedoes aboard their ship must arm at least half (rounding up) of their main gun turrets. (i.e. if your ship has 5 primary turrets, you'd need to arm at least 3 of them to get torpedoes).
I was thinking of my destroyer/torpedo boat. It has two deck guns plus torps. I was only planning on putting one spring-powered torpedo in if I could fit...

I thought I would be more likely to make regular progress on it this way, and I could share tidbits with Tugboat, who is also building a Takao in 1/96.
I am using one of Mark's excellent kits for this hull. This is my 2nd 1/96 scale hull kit from Mark. My other is a Baltimore hull. The Baltimore build is on hold until I can get Takao battle ready.
I picked up the Takao kit from...
