What does a skill level 3 mean? Easy or hard?
1123510
One might say it means hard. Level 3 models like the 1:144 U-boat usually require advanced painting, glue, and sometimes hand-drilling or cutting. The age range is 12 and up.

The scale runs from 1, the easiest, to 3, the most difficult. Revell explains level 3 this way:3-Advanced-Paint and Glue needed-Ages 12 and up Skill Level 3 kits are our most advanced kits and offer an appropriate level of detail and authenticity. Frequently extra parts are also supplied for multiple building versions. We suggest the builder have some previous model building experience before tackling a Skill Level 3 kit due to the complexity of some of the assemblies and/or the multiple color painting schemes needed.

It's fairly difficult to construct. You will need to use glue. I'd say if your 12 or older you can put this together with only minor difficulties. One last thing,... It looks awesome!!

Hello Brenda, skill 3 is for experienced model builders, skill 1 &2 are good for first timers who have never built a model before..a person with good hand eye skills, patience and ability to follow directions could do a skill 3..there are 5 skill levels, 5 being the most demanding..hope this helps..:)

It's supposed to be an "Advanced" build (meaning skill levels 12+ years) but after I looked the kit over I honestly don't see it being that bad... I haven't built it yet as I have lots of projects backed up but it's a nice kit... Hope this helps you somewhat...

The higher the number...the more difficult the build. Revell uses a scale of 1 to 5...5 obviously being the most difficult.

Skill level 3 mean that the model your about to built has many small parts that demands skill and patience in order to have a real good result. Before going to level 3, one should consider to pratice with models asking skill 1 and 2 which are less demanding for good results. L. Crevier

This submarine is not hard to put together. I would recommend very fine drawing pens for blackening in the side ballast ports. The bridge needs a little work in putting it together. Good detail for a type VII C submarine,Revell Germany makes good models. Thus, you will have to use a fine drawing pen to draw in swatiskas in the battle flag, as they are against the law in Germany. Good luck.

I would say third grade and up. It is a fast paced game with a lot going on at once. It took my second graders awhile to get the hang of the game.

If you can follow the fast steps in volume 2 agility disc, that is probably harder. But volume 1 has 3 cardio discs while volume 2 only has 2.

No it is not correct. It has some crude humor in it. I would say 14 - any age. My friends and I are in our 20's and we love it. This game, while simple in its nature, takes a lot of strategic planning in order to win, as everyone is against each other. Though if a 10 year old got good at it, they would probably really advanced in their processing abilities later in life.

Difficult to say what age. My nephew is 32months old, he can play all the three levels and he loves it.

i don't know. i'm running it on xp. just a heads up: it's an easy game to learn, but a hard game to play.

My daughter is a level 4 and it's perfect for her. Not sure what level 6 skills are.

Yes, it's pretty easy once you read the rules, it has all to do with throwing a dice and achieving a goal on it. I bought the game after watching this review, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jh4nSpV2n4kby the way I also have the expansion that add a lot of difficulty to the original game. It's pretty fun and it takes about 2 hours to complete a game.

"Easy" is relative. It was easy for me but I've worked on cars for a long time. I wouldn't suggest this repair for a novice; but removal and installation is pretty straightforward.

Easy? Not really. It isnt as fine a tip as I would prefer.Do-able? Certainly, with a learning curve requiring patience until you can accurately predictThe appearance of the outcome. Doesnt always mark where you think it should be marking.

The box says it's Skill Level 3 but I think it's more a level 2 kit. Assembly of the ship is not difficult at all, but the number of oars and shields puts the number of parts over 100, hence the higher skill level. (Just to put it in perspective, I assembled this very kit when I was 15 and had absolutely NO problems with it.). Hope that helps....

My five year old loves it. It's too hard for my 3 year old. My 8, 10, and 12 year olds love it just as much as the five year old. (Try to master this yourself, it's no "rookie" game.) Harder than it seems. But simple enough to get the 5 year olds hooked.

I would say too complicated. It took my 11 year old awhile to get the hang of it.

I have been playing a long time this game is the easiest way of playing D&D; and quite fun ... The people whom I play with range in age from 40 to 14... This is more a tabletop game then an old school game of D&D; but it gives you the basics of how the game is played... I hope this helps and good adventuring

I think the "difficulty" level is no problem for a 10 year-old, especially one who is a good reader (the cards used in play require a bit of reading). However, the game play does involve themes that some parents might want to talk about with their younger children before setting them lose with the game (e.g. demons, witches, etc.) Before giving the game to your son, I suggest reading through the cards to see if they are on his reading level and checking to make sure that you are comfortable with the themes that part of the game.

No, this game is great for anyone interested in a challenge of logic. It has easy, intermediate, and advanced cards so you can pick the difficulty, but even the easy cards are challenging. Good game for anyone over 8.

I think the game is best at 2 or 3 personally. It gets a bit too easy with 4 or 5, not that it is very difficult to start with. So to answer your question, yes it is fun with 2.
