    Default Hello all

    Completely new to Sails of Glory, I haven't even got the game yet. But I have been a keen fan of naval warfare for more years than I can remember.

    Greetings John and welcome to the Anchorage. Do check out our solo campaign and rules as Eric has indicated. The AI is surprisingly adroit at beating human players (as I can attest to most recently).

    Welcome to the Anchorage, John. I think that you will enjoy the game when you do have a copy or someone near you to give you the experience of a game.
