Advice for an enthusiastic beginner please

My opinions are quite similar to Luke's, the Battleship is a little tricky to make work in smaller point value games, which 1250 is at the top end of. The carriers are great, the Seattle is by far and away consistently the best performing ship in my fleet. I usually take two now, with an Atlantis for a flagship if I can fit it in!

If you're comfortable doing it, I'd highly recommend magnetising all of the guns on the UCM ships - officially so you can swap them around between games but unofficially so you can swivel them round in game to point at your enemy haha

Thanks - I'll definitely do that then. What size magnets do you recommend? And how do you drill the holes? Hand drill and a vice?
