Descripción

"Be prepared to spend hours commanding your ships into glorious victory or crushing defeat." - SlideToPlay.com

"The AI regularly cleans my clock until it gleams." - PocketTactics.com

Hoist your sails and load the cannons as you embark for adventure on the high seas! Can you defeat your friends and best your enemies to become the Admiral of the Fleet?

Naval Tactics: Captains of the Spanish Main is set in the Golden Age of Sail, where stout ships of wood were crewed by even stouter men. Nations at peace and at war engaged in naval actions on the high seas. Naval Tactics brings the proud tradition of great naval board games such as Wooden Ships and Iron Men to iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch.

TACTICAL WAR BOARD GAME

From the hexagonal playing field to the potentially game changing Captain's Cards, Naval Tactics is a board game to its very roots. To succeed you will need to take your time, think three moves ahead, and mind the weather gauge!

ONLINE ASYNCHRONOUS MULTIPLAYER

Powered by the online system used by Starbase Orion, enjoy one of the best multiplayer experiences on the App Store with asynchronous, turn-based matches, real-time chat, unlimited number of concurrent games, automated match-making, and more!

TRUE NAVAL COMBAT

Naval Tactics prides itself on striving to capture the spirit of traditional naval combat in board game form. Configure your fleet using a variety of ships, from nimble Naval Cutters to massive Ships of the Line. Should you disable an opponent with bar shot or blast through their hull with double shot? Enterprising Captains will need to understand their vessels, their armaments, how they sail in relation to the wind, and the advantages of naval formations to best their fellows on the high seas.

BALANCED COMPETITIVE PLAY

Combining just the right amount of variety while maintaining a balanced engagement, Naval Tactics sets the bar for multiplayer naval combat on iOS. Choose your Captain's Cards, configure your fleet, outfit your ships, and embark on glorious battles knowing you will have to outwit your opponent to claim victory.

HISTORICAL MISSIONS

One cannot have a naval combat game without paying respect to the many true heroes who have shown their bravery on the seas. Live the Battle of Flamborough Head, the Constitution vs Guerriere, or the struggle at Trincomalee. More historical missions will be added in future updates!

I love the game, but it has a bug that keeps it from full potential

I love this game. I play it as often as possible. But, recently, I have tried battle royale (6 player battle) and it acts fine until in round 0 I am setting up player six, and I have captain cards and ships picked out, and I push next, and the game freezes. PLEASE GET RID OF THIS!

Love it! Great re-playability.

Just a wonderful game for a large size iPad. Clean attractive interface. Simple design, with nice nuances as you get deeper. I’ve only played against the AI, not online, the former being my preferred way to relax with a strategy game. I almost always beat the AI now, but it remains a challenge to do it without losing any of my ships. I’ve read every Patrick O’Brien story, of course, as well as the Hornblower series way back when. I find the game plays true to the strategy in the books, and I suspect to reality as well. The suicide missions by small fast enemy ships are a nice component of the AI’s strategy. One minor quibble is that boarding enemy ships still strikes me as too difficult, because they maintain much of their firepower to the end and tend to be too dangerous to approach to knock out sails and crew. Also, there doesn’t seem to be any bonus for having your cannons pre-loaded as you go into a turn, as compared to loading and firing in the same round. There are helpful warnings when you are about to leave cannons unfired or when ships are about to collide, but I still often forget to press the crucial “combat” button after a round of focusing on “repairs” or “sail.” Very modest price for many many hours of replayability, with no requests to buy more features or annoying requests for a review. Thank you for the wonderful app!

Excellent Turn-based Strategy Game

Harken back to the days of the tall ships, and build a fleet to take on other players, or play one of the many scenarios, each with their own challenge. The integrated help shows you the basics, and beginner scenarios allow you to learn piloting, maneuvering, firing on enemies, boarding enemy ships, all at your own speed.

Players of this game are probably the MOST helpful, mature, enthusiastic I’ve come across in iPad/iPhone world. Don’t understand something? Ask in chat, and it will be answered as players come online (It is asynchronous multiplayer, so players tend to hop on/off to play their turns when notified). And actually learned the game and its nuances by simple asking to be ‘shown the ropes’.

And wow. What a deep and satisfying game this is. If you love turn-based strategy, this is a great investment. I understand that the developer frequently updates, so really looking forward to seeing this game grow and mature.
