Club Information

General Information on Model Warship Combat:
RC Warship Combat is a an extremely helpful site for all aspects of model warship combat. There are forums available for most questions people have.

North American Model Warship Organizations:
There are three different major rule sets for 1:144 model warship combat: Big Gun, Fast Gun, and Washington Treaty. The object for all types is to sink one’s neighbor. Fast Gun uses exclusively BB sized ammunition, thin balsa, and the ships move fastest. Big Gun uses different sized ammunition depending upon the size of the prototype guns, different thicknesses of balsa for armor, a rate of fire limitation, often have rotating turrets, and the ships are slowest. Washington Treaty (often referred to only as Treaty) ships are constructed similarly to Fast Gun ships, but they are a little slower and have a rate of fire limitation.

Fast Gun Organizations:
IR/CWCC is an umbrella organization with many clubs and unified rule sets.
International R/C Warship Combat Club, Inc. is located primarily in the Northeast USA and Eastern Canada. For specific location information, see their captains and clubs page.
