Seas of Iron (2013)

About this game

Seas of Iron is a battleship combat game for 2-4 players set during the height of the battleship's reign around the time of World War II and the early 20th century. The game is quick to learn and simple to play, with players attempting to combat and eliminate each other's ships in order to be the undisputed king of the seas. Players can easily adapt the rules to play in teams or with fleets of ships.

Does it fit your group?

• Group size. Works with 2 to 4.
• Rules load. At 1.5/5 this is a light game — explain it in a few minutes, good for a table that has not played much.
• Age. The publisher suggests 10 and up. That rates the rules rather than the artwork, so judge the box yourself for younger players.
