paints a Napoleonic caricature.
Trireme Commander is the ancient version of our well-known Napoleonic tactical naval rules Gunboat – Squadron Commander. Players of SC will find it very easy to play Trireme Commander, as both rulesets share many of the same rules and concepts, with the adaptation to the ancient naval combat that was more a brutal melee of impacting galleys and a crush of warriors on the unstable decks, trying to defeat their enemies with the same weapons that they used as legions or phalanxes.
Trireme Commander is a game of tactical naval combat, focused on the simulation of combat between small fleets of galleys, rather than great naval engagements.

We have released three different types of 10mm Galleys. Each type of galley can have multiple combinations of rails, bows and prows. The ships are a Hemiola type, a Birreme type, and a Trireme type. In about a month, a new series of 10mm crews will be available, including Republican Roman, Carthaginian, Syracusan, Macedonian and Pirates.
