Hey! Just want to say I absolutely love your bigger, badder BSB. I have ordered a BSB myself and was wondering what additional parts I would need to modify it into something like yours. Did you basically buy 2 BSBs and smoosh them together? I have 4 spare hull pieces (stern, bow, 2 middle), a single mast and some rigging & cannons. Would it be more cost effective to scavenge/buy additional parts I need, or just buy another BSB? :P Thanks for your help.

Hi guys, thanks for the advice. I have ordered a QAR from Amazon (had a £50 gift voucher so it cost £40 in the end) and also won an auction for a BSB from eBay (£58) so I'm quite happy. I was considering buying a second BSB and demolishing it for parts so that I could turn my first BSB into a larger Imperial ship. Is this plausible, or total overkill? I already have the hull sections and a single mast /w rigging but not much else.

Hi all, I'm currently aggressively bidding on a Black Seas Barracuda on eBay, and I've also ordered a QAR from Amazon. I currently own an old Renegade Runner and numerous boats, but also 4 hull pieces that I got from a boot fair years ago (bow, stern, 2 middle sections). I possess a metric tonne of pirate figures and about 10 imperials. My aim is to have a single large imperial ship that can combat the pirate horde - having never built a custom ship before, I need some help! Is it easier to convert the QAR to an imperial vessel, or modify/expand a BSB and take off the pirate flags? Ideally the imp ship would have a 4+ cannon broadside, 3 is acceptable. I've seen the Imperial Flagship (102010) but at £245 (Amazon, cheapest I've seen) it is just too much money I think. Any ideas? NB. If you think the BSB is less suitable than another ship, please say so and I'll stop my pursuit of one :) Cheers, Rap
