'Miniature Rules for Naval Warfare 1793-1815 and Armada Period Rules Supplement.''As the title of these rules suggests, the game's primary interest lies in the recreation of fleet actions involving squadrons of Ship o' the Line. Although plenty of rules are included to cover the smaller vessels, and some very interesting single-ship duels can be fought using these rules, they are primarily designed to allow players to command squadrons of three to six ships each.''As many people reading these rules may be aware, several years ago the designer of these rules published a board game on this same topic (Wooden Ships & Iron Men). The board game was developed as a simplified version of the Ship o' the Line miniature rules . . . This miniature version has since been further expanded, up-dated, modified and developed into the format you see here, which we at Battleline feel is the most complete set of rules available anywhere for tactical sailing ship actions.' - BoardGameGeek
