DBSA - The Great War at Sea Gridded...A Footnote

With a huge sigh of relief I sat down to consider what needed finishing off on the rules for the final version. The short answer is not really very much and so I have listed out that which needs attention as follows:

  • Map movement
  • Scenario types for one off games and some victory conditions!
  • Minefields
  • Submarines
  • Merchantmen and raiders
  • Air assets
  • Shore defences - forts and gun batteries etc

I also need to work on the ship specification charts for the Royal Navy and the High Seas Fleet - and the Japanese and US Navy. I have most of the detail for these already in place but I need to tweak a few things as my ideas have evolved over time.

I will be consolidating all the written stuff into a single file in due course (probably with a few format changes for tidying up purposes) but in the meantime the rules and the ship specifications are available on request should anybody want them - just ping me an email.

I'm glad to see that you are making great progress! I would like a copy of the rules when they are finished if you would be so kind... maybe they will help get my run-aground project back on track.

Thanks EG - no problem with rules - I will send on as soon as ready and I hope the project gets back on track!
