This is the 16th and 17th Centuries—the age of the Sea Dogs and the Invincible Armada. Become a captain of your own sailing warship in this new Art of Tactic game!
Players simultaneously and secretly issue orders to their crew: what kind of ammunition should you load in your guns? What course should you plot to line up the perfect shot? Then, those orders are carried out simultaneously on the modular game board. Since all players are involved in the action, there's no down time.
Features highly-detailed plastic models, accurately created from actual deck plans from the period.
