Mare Nostrum

These rules relate to naval warfare in the ancient period, when the oar was the main source of propulsion of a boat. These rules reproduce the wars across the sea to the Renaissance age. They are simple, but historically accurate and fun.

Basing: We suggest you use 1:1200 scale ship models on bases 4cm by 8cm. The bases should be painted blue with white highlights, to simulate the waves of the sea. Each base should have one model, except for boats or small brigantines, which should be based two or four to a base. You can easily use any scale and apply the kind of basing it prefers, provided it is uniform for all elements involved in naval battles.
