Description

INTRODUCTION
The year is 1795 and France is gathering their Forces for their Armies and Navy in a grand attempt to conquer Europe. It is also a time of revolutions, imperialism, piracy and political intrigue. In this game, you start out as a young Officer serving in the Royal Navy. As you complete missions, you will gain experience, honor and hopefully promotions. In time, you may have a command of your own.

The Player determines the number of Game Turns to play (10 for a short game, 15 for a moderate game or 20 for a long game) with the goal of reaching the highest rank within that time frame. The Player will then compare his PO’s rank with the Career Success Table to determine how well his PO did? TO GLORY WE SAIL may be played with up to 4 Players if desired (see Multiplayer Rules at the end of these rules).
