In Sails of Glory, players sail and fight with massive ships-of-the-line or swift frigates, in an age where the armies and fleets of the French Emperor Napoleon I battled across the seas against the powerful Royal Navy of the British Empire in dramatic naval battles, such as Trafalgar and the Battle of the Nile. Using cards and pre-painted and assembled ship miniatures to recreate naval battles during the Age of Sail, this Sails of Glory Starter Set comes complete with four ships (two French and two British), each complemented by a specific maneuver deck and ship log, as well as a full-color rulebook, counters, and accessories.
