Designing and Building Model RC Warships

Glynn Guest

Summary

Warships are often appealing subjects for working models, especially if there is a personal or family connection with a vessel. However, models based on warships can have a reputation for being difficult to build and safely operate. This can be avoided if the idea of 'Stand-Off Scale' is used. This is where the model will have the appearance of the full-size when sailing, but is a practical working model boat. To successfully build this type of working boat and minimize the problems that might occur, it is important to have some understanding of how such ships work. With this in mind, this book not only details all the information needed to design, outfit and operate a model warship, but also supplies information about how the boats operate.

Larping - A Guide to the World...

Sophie Henner

Live Action Role Playing, commonly known as LARP, is a form of role-playing game where participants embody their characters physically and interact within a structured narrative. Unlike traditional tabletop role-playing games, LARP involves players dressing in costumes, using props, and engaging in live-action scenarios that unfold in real-time. These scenarios can take place in a variety of settings, such as forests, parks, buildings, or specially designed venues, each chosen to enhance the immersion of the experience. 
  
The narratives in LARP can range from fantasy and science fiction to historical reenactments or modern-day scenarios. Players create and develop their characters, often with detailed backstories and personalities, and then navigate through the storyline, making decisions and interacting with other characters. This interaction can involve dialogue, combat, or collaborative problem-solving, all governed by a set of rules and guidelines that ensure fairness and continuity within the game.
