    Mr. Ferres is causing me much confusion. The Facebook entry says the ships are 1/285 scale whereas his own website correctly describes the ships as 1/2400 scale.

      My score was zero out of five too! I was even reprimanded for spelling the Graf Spee incorrectly- and I think I have again!

    First Ship: Italian WWII Vittorio Veneto?
    Second Ship: British WWI HMS Tiger BC ?
    Third Ship: French WWI Bouvet?
    Fourth Ship: German WWI Kaiser Class?
    Fifth Ship: HMS Repulse?

    Great looking ships. It is too bad my club does not like naval games. These are inspiring ships.

    Well I admit to liking battleships. The quiz is a neat idea I hope you get more people who answer.

        I’ll be honest, it was a team effort between me and Conway’s All The World’s Fighting Ships! 😉
