R/C Warship Combat Construction Articles
    The graphics in some of these articles are a bit rough.  I wrote them several years ago with a since obsolete program.  They were, therefore, somewhat low resolution to start with.  Translating them through a couple of different programs to get to a modern format did not help things any!  I plan to upgrade them in the future.
