Eastern Fleet (1st Edition, 1st Printing)

Flush with victory, the Imperial Japanese Navy turned its eye toward the Indian Ocean. There, Britain's vaunted Royal Navy stood ready to defend the decaying Raj. In a whirlwind campaign, Japan's crack carrier pilots showed that Brittania would never again rule the waves. Can you duplicate their feat or, as the British player, reverse the tide of history? Players plot the movement of their task forces and the launch of air strikes in advance. When opposing forces meet play moves to the tactical map, where combat is resolved. Scenarios recreate the historical battles as well the what-if battles that could have occurred in the Indian Ocean.
