Each player gives orders to their ships for the next 3 minutes of game time. The orders are then executed simultaneously.

There are scenarios from a small one with the German Graf Spee against 3 Allied cruisers to large scenarios like the battles around Ironbottom Sound.
Each ship has detailed armor specifications and comprehensive data about the types of guns each has with rates of fire and penetration being taken into account.
