Description

The 27-28 March 1941 Allied and Italian naval operations at 40mis/64kms per hex in 3-hour turns. Ultra (if it works) and the possibility of false Luftwaffe reports of reduced British battleship strength being true put opposing commanders in an historical fog of war decision-making environment. Dummy units included to enhance that. The 7 Greek destroyers who tried to make it into action (via the Canal of Corinth) have the chance to succeed as well. Older, somewhat slower Italian battleships Caio Duilio and Giulio Cesare may be used/risked by Italian player. Naval combat simplified as in my other naval battle and campaign games, or the players can choose to resolve that instead using my (also free print-and-play) Naval Action (or any other) naval miniatures rules with the game's pixel-by-pixel crafted individual ship pieces. Naval forces can be divided among multiple strategic and operational/tactical commanders, as in my Leyte Gulf Naval Chess Game. —description from the designer
