Might be of interest to some? I don't know if it's new or old, but spotted it while checking out Spiel coverage from 2017 (was trying to find some more information about Blood Red Skies). The game looks intriguing, but due to the language barrier it's probably one I wont be checking out?

Just saw that you can get English translations in the box set via Amazon, or download a pdf from the developer. Cheers.

Nice looking boxed set Jim.
Ideal for taking away on holiday I would think.
I particularly liked the ships with the detachable masts. Only some of the ares ones are so provided!:wink:

The heavy card stock map boards look nice. It gives you the option to leap frog the map as the ships move off.

Went on the site and downloaded the English rules, plus the scenarios. The 5 mini scenarios really opens up Trafalgar as a doable game.

Where did you find the download Neil?
I went on the site and could not find anything even putting in a search came up blank.

If you get a chance let us know about the mini scenarios. I'd be interested in your impression of them. Thanks!

Thanks Neil.
Found it right away this time.
Problem now is I don't have an account and it won't let me save the file.
I will have to get Jim to have a look on one of his better days.

Not to hijack this but see there is a new book out on Trafalgar, this in the same series of cut out armies books by Peter Dennis , but this has all the side elevations of all ships, will know more when I see one.

That should be very interesting to get hold of Chris.
Please keep me updated on that one, as info on the Spanish is quite sparse as you know.

Sounds like you're able to get this already in the UK? Not available here in the US until April 6th.

Thanks for the heads up Jim.
Looked at Amazon U.K. and got it ordered from the Book Depository for just over £9.00 post free.
