Hi, all! I saw Fleets of Battle at a naval group and I was wondering what core of Piquet rules do I need to play Fleets of Battle, which is designed for...

Hi Chris, If you get to play reasonably often don't worry about initiative swings, they even out in the end and add a lot of drama and tension to the game! If...
