Great War at Sea: Prizes of War

During the Great War, British naval planners worried that French or Russian dreadnoughts could fall into German hands, and wondered if they might buy or seize them themselves. Prizes of War is a new downloadable supplement for the Great War at Sea game series. You can download it right now -- 70 new ship pieces, 21 (yes, twenty-one!) scenarios and ship data -- no pre-orders, no waiting!

Prizes of War Ships

British naval planners worried that French and Russian warships might come under German control during the First World War; the Germans thought the British might do the same but fretted much less about the possibility. You can explore both possibilities with our new Great War at Sea: Prizes of War, a downloadable supplement that's available right now -- no waiting, no pre-orders, no standing by the mailbox. Today we look at the toys contained within. Order and it downloads at light speed!
