- Cruel Seas is a 1/300th scale tabletop miniatures game where you command fleets of small ships in battle taking place on the seas around the world in the dark days of WWII. Action in the game is fast-paced - with six or more ships per side, a thrilling seaborne dogfight can be fought in forty-five minutes or less and only need a flat surface to play!
- Cruel Seas is scenario driven providing a strong narrative element to each game. From easy to play introductory scenarios to more demanding operations that will test your skill and your nerves! The game covers the British Royal Navy, German Kriegsmarine, US Navy, Imperial Japanese Navy, Soviet Navy and Italian Regia Marina – each having their own character and play style.
- Move, shoot and roll. Try to save your crew and sink your enemy’s ships, Cruel Seas provides a multitude of ship and aircraft options and plenty of options to customize your boats’ weaponry, making each game different and exciting!
- This set contains six S-boats, 3 German E-boat S-100 class and 3 German E-boat S-38 class. The sleek and nimble S-boats of the German Kriegsmarine terrorized the narrow seas from 1939 to 1945. Developed in secret, they outpaced any other nation's light craft almost to the end of hostilities. Over 100 ft long, they were the largest true motor torpedo boats of the war, in any navy.
- Build, paint and play! The construction and painting of the models and watching them come to life are just as much fun as the game itself!
The Schnellboat or 'E Boat' as the British Admiralty called them, E for enemy, was a truly formidable beast, in many ways incomparable in detail to the other nation's boats. In sheer size alone, the E boat was much, much bigger. Allied boats tended to be 70-80 feet in length, the E boat 115 feet long, and the laws of physics, though complex, favour a larger hull for speed over a shorter one. German engineering also gave them another advantage, as when speed reached 25 knots, a crank mechanism when turned moved 2 side rudders to flare, symmetrically outward at 30 degrees, creating an air-filled hollow space, the so-called LÃ¼rssen effect. This gave three distinct advantages, greater speed, a reduction in the tell-tale wake of the speeding boat, and finally settled the boat in a more efficient plane, leaving the vessel shallower in the water, most useful in mine and torpedo infested waters and remarkable for a boat weighing in at 100 tons! Contains: six E-boats (3x S-38 & 3x S-100)
