Description

Get ready to set sail for battle in Great War at Sea: The Mediterranean, a classic board game from 1996. Designed by Michael Bennighof and Brian L. Knipple, this game drops you into the midst of World War I, where you'll take command of your nation's fleet in the Mediterranean. With a playtime of around 120 minutes, you'll have plenty of time to strategize and outmaneuver your opponent in this two-player game. As you navigate the hexagon grid, you'll need to make simultaneous action selections to outwit your enemy and gain control of the sea. With normal complexity rules, this game is easy to learn for anyone familiar with board games. As the first in the Great War at Sea series, it's a great introduction to the world of nautical wargames, and its themes of World War I and naval combat make for a thrilling and immersive experience.
