About the game
This is the second of the Avalanche Press Golden Journal supplements. It contains 20 additional counters for ships in various Great War at Sea and Second World War at Sea —user summary Japanese Repair Ship Akashi. On a “long” counter. Dutch fast battleships. Dutch naval constructors admired the Italian Littorio, when allowed to tour her, and tried hard to acquire her plans. While they initially intended to reap modern design ideas for their own battle cruisers, some hoped to use those plans to make their own. You can try out these powerful ships in Dutch colors in Spice Islands or Orange Waters. Austrian destroyers. The Tatra class on “long” counters. Lion Reborn. Lion and Princess Royal, as they might have been reconstructed in the 1930’s. Brandenburg Battleships. Revised pieces for the six-gun pre-dreadnoughts that served Germany and Turkey. Australia Reborn. Australia’s battle cruiser as she might have been rebuilt for the Second World War (or Second Great War). —description from the publisher
