15mm scale. Be able to run 2 or 3 boats while managing an infantry battle as well. Any thoughts gentlemen?

I would recommend Gunboat Diplomacy by Bob Duncan. You can find it here, it is free. link

In addition, you can also use his rather simple All the Kings Men rules for land combat. link

Bob and his group of gamers used these rules extensively and they were also used not just at his house but also at Nashcon.

Major Mike. Couldn't locate the rules.

Disaster. I have B&B but it's too much for a teaching game where I have to know all the rules.

Thanks for the suggestions.

My apologies. The rules are located in the files section of the FB group HMGS MidSouth. If you can't find them there, send me an email to mkpcclataol.com. I can send you a pdf.
