Fleets 2025: East China Sea
A low-to-moderate complexity wargame of a military and political crisis in the East China Sea, where modern United States and Chinese fleets confront a Taiwanese flash point. Players maneuver major ships, escorts, and aircraft squadrons, hunting opposing forces and conducting air and naval engagements with asymmetrical capabilities and tactics. Fast-action cards and dice resolve combat and political pressure as each side seeks to inflict enough damage to break the opponent’s will and make them back down. Each turn represents half a day, with scenarios supporting two-player play.
