Lawrence,
I'm so happy and glad we have a Nile Gunboat in NYC! Great stuff!

Larry and Mike.
I am pretty sure there is a Trophy Nile Boat Steamer in NYC. I saw one hiding behind a few Panzers at a Louis' museum. Much more convenient if you chaps are going to organize a commando raid to liberate one. I think he may also have a Hick's Attwell armoured train suitable for Boer War or Sudan.
 
Wow, this boat is bigger then a Trophy one...How long is it? I hear that Hicks Attwell passed away some time ago...I wonder for how much these boats go now? :confused:
 
The boat is about 25 inches long. Not sure if the boat is bigger than the Trophy version as I sadly do not have a Trophy one to compare it to.

I believe the Trophy boat is about 39" long, Damian will confirm the correct size;)

Cheers

Mike,

Alas, I lack the skills of a craftsman. The base was made by Gordon of King & Country. One of two made by Gordon that I use when playing:D

All the best,
Lawrence

Been there, done that:D "Borrowed" his Trophy sets and returned them without him noticing;) He is easily distracted with his search for K&C, Figarti, Honour Bound, Heco.... Add a couple of young children to the mix and it's like taking candy from a baby:p So Mike, are you up for a "road trip?":D

Watched "Young Winston" last night.
I realized that one Nile Boat Steamer is not enough.
You need at least three, plus ten artillery pieces and thousands of madhi and and and .........

I suggest you watch Khartoum tonight.

For every Nile Boat Steamer, you need at least 3 attacking Dervish dhows and and and................

Funny you should mention Arab Dhows Raymond;)

This is an Arab dhow made by Hicks Attwell. He made a few different ones.
They are hard to find but I could :)

Trophy made a nice dhow as well.
