Currently four. The first trilogy are "Invasion!", "Breakthrough!" and "Counterattack!". There is also a spin off book "Texas Front: Salient". I just finished writing the first book of the second trilogy which is due out in January. You can find them all on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Simon & Schuster, or direct from the publisher Winged Hussar Publishing.

Nice! It's in the same line as the ship I bought.

Looking good. Gun upgrade is recommended - always more pop for the bucks! (6" = 150mm)

At this scale, you could probably hit the hobby store for some PlastiStruct tubing or rod and make any size gun you want quite cheaply.
Leaves more $$ for what you can't make.

Scott, going to that link, it looks like you have written 11 books. Are these all in the AQMF universe? If not which ones are and what order are they in. I would want to start with the first one and go chronologically.

Hi Wally,
No they are not all Great Martian War novels (for legal reasons my stories are referred to as Great Martian War). There are currently 4 GMW books. In order they are "Invasion", "Breakthrough", "Counterattack", and "Texas Front: Salient". A fifth book is due out in January. The first three are now only available individually as e-books. If you want a hardcopy version then you need to buy the "America in Flames" omnibus which has all three in one volume.

1: Scott's Books are available as e-Books. As near as I know, Scott gets as much money in royalties from an e-book sale as a paper book sale. (The bible says "A workman is worthy of his wages, or, colloquially, pay the author, get more books.) I find the advantage of the e-book is that I get it almost immediately and anywhere I go I take my phone of tablet, and I wan sit in a waiting room, listen to music and read a good book. (Yes, I have more of Scott's books than his AQMF series, No, I do not work for or with Scott. Actual endorsements from a humble fanboy.)
2: Scott has a gunboat available well suited to the game. It is a complex model and I would A: print a copy in b/w on regular paper and build one for practice, because as even an experienced modeler I found I will make errors, and B: make some other models first, this is a bit too fussy for beginners
3: Excellent original thread, great discussion.
