Now available from our online shop: our new wargames rulesets Gunboat – Squadron Commander & Company Comander.
Both rulesets were demonstrated at Salute, in a combined scenario of the Siege of Rosas – 1808, a daring action conducted by Lord Cochrane in the Peninsular War, which was a great success with all the gamers that visited us at the show.
Gunboat – Squadron Commander
Gunboat, our original 15mm Napoleonic small-naval-action ruleset, has grown and, with this second edition, has become Squadron Commander in an updated form. The game has been re-scaled for better playability, and is supported by a whole range of miniature crews and ships that are available in 10mm scale exclusively from our online shop. With the re-scaling, players will be able to play on a smaller game table with smaller gunboats or on a larger table with cutters, brigs of war, sloops, corvettes, frigates, Xebecs, and much more.
Full-color rulebooks of 35 pages come with one token cardboard sheet and six color cardboard deck board templates for ease of combat resolution. Price: £25.00 GBP
Company Commander
Company Commander rules are designed for games between small units of men, such as reconnaissance patrols, supply convoy escorts, intelligence missions, border attacks, and other missions, which were given to small groups of selected troops. The actions of small groups of soldiers and the direct commands of their officers are the most important aspects of play. The system simulates the frantic rhythm of an encounter. The "human factors" of individual initiative, speed, and leadership are worth more than the grand tactics of larger battles.
2nd October 2014 was the 6th anniversary of the publishing of the first edition of the Capitan rules. During these six years, the game has been developed with the suggestions of many players, clubs and hours of gaming.
Now, with the birth of Capitan Games Limited, it is time to release the new edition of Capitan that, from now on, will be known as Company Commander.
Full-color rules of 56 pages with full army lists of 25 different Napoleonic armies. Price: £20.00 GBP.
