    Description

    Dark Seas is a wargame featuring the night battles between naval forces in the Second World War.

    The Second World War saw many battles fought between opposing navies. A large number of these were surface actions fought at night. Dark Seas is a quick playing game that simulates these actions.

    To play, you should have:
    • two six sided dice,
    • a twelve sided die,
    • a hex grid with large hexes, and
    • adhesive-backed paper to make the counters.
    • Optional, but highly recommended are some sets of colored wooden blocks of the type used by Columbia Games in their block games. These make very nifty counters that can be set on edge for ease of use.
    Turn Sequence:
    1. Movement phase
    2. Spotting phase
    3. Combat phase

    Scale:
    1 turn = 36 min
    1 hex = 12,000 yards across
    1 wooden block = individual ship and group of ships called “task groups"
