So the 2016 IRCWCC Nationals is going to be in Bradford, PA June 19-24. Obviously not as exciting as going to Texas, but the short 3.5hr drive is a plus. I'm most likely going to bring HMS Prince of Wales again, but without the bugs. Not sure about what I will bring for a secondary ship yet, maybe something Canadian like HMCS Haida or HMCS Québec. What is everybody planning on bringing?
Forgot it was a small pond, probably bringing Don's South Carolina... Maybe it will be a good luck charm.
"No where to run,,,,,,,,,,,,, no where to hide" I love it, theme song of the "Allied Scourge". Not really that small, but I wouldn't want to drive something 60" or better.
Scary thing for this cruiser captain is I'm afraid there won't be such a thing as the "outskirts of the battle" where I'm supposed to operate.

Hey Maxspin, have you ever made a wood hull? All you list are FG hulls, kind of limits your selection. Espana, Lion, Mississippi, several Italians (goes both ways)
