    The prolific Mark Jenks has done it again, and produced a set of plans for the Soviet Kronstadt battlecruiser, and he has graciously allowed me to post them in the 'Free Plans' section for your enjoyment! You can find that by clicking on the Members tab, it's the bottom option on the drop-down menu.
    Thanks, Mark! :)
    Kronstadt is not legal in IRC or MWC, but may be legal if you battle with a club that allows ships that were partially built, or hypotheticals. The hull got 10% done, if that matters in your ruleset. Legal in Battlestations!, although you'd have to scale the plans up. Definately NOT legal for Age of Sail :)

    Interesting. What were the lines derived from?

    Thanks Mark!

    The lines were based on drawing out of the Project 69 book. Matt will have to chime in here with the author's name, I don't remember it.

    Definitely a HUGE thank you goes out to Mark. Ive wanted to build this boat for a while, but have lacked the necessary plans. Thanks again for helping me build the boat I had my heart set on as a newbie in the hobby!

    The plans in the Free Plans page are 1/144. That means when you print them they will be in 1/144 scale. If you want 1/96 scale you would have to rescale the plans 150%.

    Hope that answers your question. :)
