The French Fleet has grown 2 1st Rates, 11 3rd Rates 5 5th Rate Frigates a Corvette and 3 Brigs. All of the Ships of the Line can switch flags and two are painted in the Black with White of the US Navy (but also used by other Navies including the French and English). Indeed one of the ships is the Tonnant from the British Ships of Renowned set.
The Royal Navy 1 1st rate the Royal Sovereign, 7 3rd rates, 3 large 5th rate frigates and 3 small 5th rate frigates. 1 Brig, two cutters and a ship sloop. All of the 3rd rates can be reflagged to serve as French (or another Navy) giving me 18 3rd rates all together. Some reinforcement at planned over the course of the Analog Hobbies Painting Challenge.
Finally the United States Navy, I can call this one "complete" because I have all the major Historical ships of the period. All of the original six frigates, the Essex, I have to generic 5th rate frigates one that operates as the USS Boston and the other that moves it's identity between the New York and The Philadelphia.
I've got plans to start painting up a small Spanish force over the course of the Painting Challenge.
Those are fine looking fleets Adam. Plenty of scope to re-fight a range of actions. Add in some Spanish and you'll be 'unstoppable'!
