AS PER MARGIN: Fleet Action Miniatures Rules for the Age of Sail
1-201111
Command a fleet when ships of wood and men of iron ruled the waves!
Some of the most enlightened miniature rules came from the talented Brother Aelred, who wrote the Monk's Corner column in MWAN. As Per Margin: Fleet Action Miniatures Rules for the Age of Sail is the first of his rule sets to be revived, revised, and expanded to grace wargamers' tabletops.
Easily learned and quickly played, As Per Margin reflects a philosophy of offering enough flavor for a great game, but avoiding too much realism that would bog down the game.
Including the Seven Years War to the Napoleonic Era, As Per Margin's fast play action means you spend more time sailing and firing and less time fidgeting. Clever 'falling aboard' movement brings ships close enough to grapple and board -- and maybe even collide.
Optional rules include Red Hot Shot, Shore Batteries, Debris Fields, Elite Crews, and more.
