Ahh, I did not realise that a gaff was also a nautical tool consisting of a hook on a pole, not just a joke or a mistake. Thanks Mystery for leading me to google the phrase.

Also the method used to support that scout using tweezers is rather neat, I like it!

Some old art for you all, most all by Tony Hough (some is from the 1990 concepts of the original Battlefleet Gothic that was never released, not sure how much of it was used elsewhere). Titles are what I've been able to glean the pieces are called or represent:

No problem Stuff of Legends has nice pictures of [URL="http://www.solegends.com/citsfleet/index.htm"]all the available ships[/URL] as well.
