Modern Ship Cards for W@S? Jul 14, 2021 2:40:59 GMT via mobile

Has anyone attempted to modify W@S rules to incorporate modern ships? In reflecting on it I think a lot of what W@S does well would especially be transferable into a modern naval wargame, so I was curious if anyone out there had taken a stab at it yet.

Some users did make a Modern one based around the Falkands War. I am looking at the old forumini and can't seem to find it. Maybe one of the admins or Mods can chime in?

EDIT: Literally found it 1 minute after posting.

Were there any other nations or rules developed besides the UK and Argentina?

Honestly I don't know. Never was part of this group but I saw snippets here and there. You could take the card template and make your own and come up with your own unique SA's. At least you got a starting point.

There is also Swizzle’s Final Countdown cards with the Nimitz and some other “modern” ships and planes from circa 1980. I think they are in the scenarios subgroup.

Falklands was condensed enough to iron out the kinks but things fell over and they didnt really go any further
