Any place on the net where I could find a diagram depicting how to assemble a battlebarge? I've fetched one on account of it looking cool, but now I'm not even sure I've all the pieces, much less how to place them.
On a sad note: I've bought it from the italian GW headquarters (it has an attached shop). Both Epic and BFG [all the Specialist Games, actually] were clearly on minimal life support, with only the basic box (or book for Epic) and extremely few "residual" blisters available. No events planned, either, for any of the games 
Basically, no sense in buying in the shop, since the minimal saving of the shipping costs is more than offset by fuel expenditure... and I also happen to live near to them (Trigoria - Laurentina with the shop being on Anagnina, for those who know Rome).
Just about the only possible advantage is ordering from FW through them, since in this case shipping costs can be quite significant. But they order once a month, and you still need to fetch the models from the shop.
And this is the national headquarters we're speaking of. SG is royally screwed

The pic is of some guy's converted Black Ship but in the background you can see the assembly instructions for the BB on the back of a box.
...I KNEW I'd seen in somewhere...:p
Cheers!

Thanks a lot
The package which contains my model must be a "new" one... much worse, no picture, not even the name of the actual ship. It's common to all the BFG blisters which were on sale, you could know the model only by looking at a tag glued on top. They are saving costs even on packaging.

Yep, my new Repulsive came in the new style of box; obviously it is much cheaper to run off a load of one generic box and just add a sticker to show the type of model inside.
