I like the Battle Box idea, have always felt there needs to be something marketed towards newbies to entice them into hobby just like WH did to grow itself into the leviathan it is today. Nothing wrong with duplicating success.

Now of course for future expansion. I can definitely see some small naval battles that could be converted into Battle Boxes:
Battle of Coronel, 1914
Battle of the Falklands, 1914
Battle of Dogger Bank, 1915
Battle of River Plate, 1939
Battle of Denmark Straight, 1941
Battle of North Cape, 1943

Include a write-up on the battle to give it some flavor, include the forthcoming rules set, and include the paints necessary to do a basic paint job on the ships. People love one stop shopping - just look at Wal-Mart. You give me everything I need to do a battle in one box, I'm a happy camper.

I personally would be willing to purchase Battle Boxes for larger battles that would cost more money, if I knew I was getting all the ships/stuff I needed.
