Galleys, Guns, and Glory! - Rule Book

Galley rules in the Renaissance! Galleys Guns and Glory! is designed to play table top naval battles with fleets of cannon packing oared vessels, in a time frame from roughly 1500- 1650. The rules are designed to work at “convention level”, which means you can learn the rules in less than 5 minutes, get into action- making a couple of n00b moves,(or spectacular maneuvers) and come away with a story or two to tell at the bar.Management of each ship and its crew are visual and easy to account for as the crew and damage to the ship are represented on the models- leaving little to no paperwork!Although trying to capture the essence of the period and referencing strongly the doctrines and tactics of the time, I claim no absolute historical accuracy, other than like the galleys of yore my ships are made of wood and are adorned with such opulent awnings, lanterns, flags and bulwark side trim that would make the Sultan’s harem jealous.Galleys Guns and Glory! Is designed for oared naval actions
