Just one image, but it's a big one. So please click on it to expand for best viewing. A roughly 1/3 scale (each inch grid = 1 km) ops map of normal Naval Command rules scale (where 1cm = 1nm, or roughly 1:120,000 - this map is roughly 1:40,000). Ships are measured at roughly 1:3000 (750 foot carriers = 3 inches). So the ships and the map are NOT to scale, the yellow dot in the center of each ship piece marks is actual location. For the record, this is NOT how the fleets were ever deployed. As some of you may know, the Falklands NEVER looked like this. Just putting the counters on the table and seeing how they look. The actual naval operations in the Falklands War were a lot more dispersed, with smaller actions taking place across dozens or hundreds of miles at places sometimes over 1,000 miles apart (if you include the actions at the South Georgia islands). But in summary, this is the kind of game we're shaping up for naval ops in the Falklands.
