You may want to give the Foch an extra high base. An extra cm can do
wonders <g> Or reduce the other ships' bases by a cm or so; that gives
the same effect but usually takes more work :-/

It happens, yes. Two coats of varnish is preferred around here to avoid
chipping, but not necessary IMO (I have still to chip any of my models
with single-coat varnish).

So? Unless you have 40+ ships per side (or you use Starfleet Wars
miniatures like the Victory-class beasties), this isn't a problem. 40+
ships per side is a pretty big battle IMO.

The real problem is when you have 40+ ships, all within *12* cm of each
other (massed SubPack strikes <g>) :-7
