To all who enjoy the 19th Century, we have reissued our comprehensive fleet naval system for the Age of Steam for a new audience. Developed as a stand-alone, fast playing with just the right amount of detail to keep the purists happy. Once more, the ships of the British or French navies take to the high seas, or any number of nations which enjoyed the transition from sail to steam. The advent of steam and iron on the high seas changed the face of battle. From the rivers and coasts of the Civil War to the great navies of Europe, the Age of Steam redefined naval power. Raise fleets again within the Eagle's Prey deluxe campaign system or the point system to create historical or hypothetical ships. Using HRG's well-tested-and-proven game mechanisms, players will once more look forward to their next encounter on the seven seas!
