The Ship Model Forum

Greetings,

Im looking for civil war ship references for a game modification. So far i have a monitor, a blockade runner and a small irocland, but i cannot find more yet. If you have any or know a place to get them on the web i would be thankful.

Try this book for all Civil War Warships. "Warships of the Civil War Navies" by Paul H. Silverstone. Excellent book for naval war gamers!

This should be out of print, but available from Amazon.com via their used book sellers.

On the web, I don't know if there is such a complete reference as Silverstone's book.

Thanks for the tip, i will look into it.

Nice nickname btw "the Adventures of Röde Orn" is indeed a very good book

You can try this web-site which has photo's www.wideopenwest.com It has photo's from the federal and confederate ironclads.

Regards
Dave

I believe the website that Dave is referring to is Ironclads and Blockade Runners, one of the best references on the web for Civil War ships: http://www.wideopenwest.com/~jenkins/ir ... onclad.htm
