Under the Southern Cross: The South American Republics in the Age of the Fighting Sail

A tactical naval wargame covering wars in southern South America from 1810 through the 1840s. Players command sailing squadrons representing Spanish, Patriot, and emergent Latin American forces across coastal and riverine waters, resolving combat with wind, maneuver, and broadsides. Rules model period details such as river and tidal currents, grounding in shallow estuaries, and use of ship’s boats to tow stranded or becalmed vessels. The box includes multiple ship-versus-ship and fleet scenarios, a duel map with activation cards, scenario playbooks, maps, counters, action cards and player aids for standalone or series-compatible play.
