I have had my eye on the Aeronef rules for ages now, and finally downloaded the PDF rules the other week.  I was quite happy with how they read through so ordered some models from Brigade Models.  The service from Brigade was excellent and I soon had some lovely models in my paws.

The models are now painted up and ready to go.

Aeronef is one of those games that periodically tempts me. I'm sure either Vanvlak or Tas will chime in about the virtues of Aeronef.  :vD

It looks interesting but i'm going to hold off until I see the new Monsters in the Sky by Catalyst before I decide to grab up either game.

Easy to play (I got the hang of it first game), blends in with Land Ironclads and Aquanef.... and very periodic.
I am not familiar with the rules of Monsters in the Sky; the models should be grand if they are anything similar to the artwork. The difference in style between the two is that Aeronef is more pre-1900 whilst Monsters is definitely post-1900.
Phil - I agree about Brigade, they provide excellent service. And nice paint job there. Now you need to paint an enemy fleet  :devil:  :devil:  8v)  

Later - had time to see the blog - ah, you DO hava an enemy fleet 8v)
Next - Land Ironclads!!!  :devil:

The idea of Aeronef sounds cool. But the models have always seemd to me to be lacking detail. That is why I am intrigued by CGL's forthcoming Leviathans where their skyships look as if they will be larger and more detailed.

Cheers

Leviathans are supposed to be 1/1200th scale (same as Aeronef), but since most of the WW1 era battleships were some 500 feet long, they'll be 5 to 6 inches long in model form.
