Ships Ahoy
On Thursday I was over to Ron's for a game. This week a game inspired by, the Battle of San Bernardino Strait, part of the Leyte Gulf fracas. Ron with a squadron of mostly paper (!) escort carriers screened by destroyers had to escape into a line of squalls before I could catch them with a task force of battleships, cruisers and destroyers.
The rules and ships were Axis & Allies, slightly modified. The capital ships are a little big for the 3" hex grid but we coped. A fun little game. Bloody torpedo bombers. Hates em!
