V in the P is a great game. However, I've played it only a few times. |

Played this a LOT at uni back in the 80s. |

We played War at Sea and the combined Victory at Sea so much that we rubbed most of the ink off the WaS counters! |

For all of the simplification inherent in the WoS/ViTP system, it's a fun game, capable of replicating some semblance of the actual results (however crudely). I haven't seen a copy in decades, but I will probably remember that Warspite was a 4-4-4, Yamato a 6-9-5, and a Treaty cruiser a 1-1-7 until I die or dementia claims me. I wonder how many other people still carry that rating system in their head (and form the occasional judgment on its basis)? Not clearly scientific, but it did its part to produce plausible results. |
