Another note: if we get a Dutch "Admiralen" DD this set, that means we can expect British A-I in Set 3 or 4. (Same sculpt, differences were minor in length and beam, and 1 torpedo tube per mount.)

I think it is now safe to say that information is correct. |
That does look likely.

I would love to see a starter with more maps. I would also like to see more counters too. And this time make a damage 3 and damage 4 counter for the BBs! One last thing, use the dice from AA minis. The ones in the WAS package are too small for my tastes. |

I will be surprised if an Admiralen class destroyer is not number 8 in this set.

I would not be surprised by that, but I think a J-class repaint is as likely if not more (which of course would mean it wasn't contemperaneous with De Ruyter, but well this is beer & pretzels) |

Definitely the smaller size is better for rolling 18 dice. And not too small like the dice included in the pirates of the Spanish Main games. |

USS Cleveland confirmed in the booster scan topic, as well as the HMS Kent, Sm 79 sparviero and the Yamashiro.
Kent is two points cheaper than Canberra, has better armor, escort killer and shadow battleship abilities and flagship 1, but no torpedoes.
Babs out! |

| If the list is true, then Japan got the shaft - four of the five rares are reprints, and their carrier situation gets worse compared to the US. |

| The IJN did get shafted. The collection of aircraft and surface forces is great but how many of us have 2 Shokaku already? If this list is confirmed in 3 days that is. |
