A new set of rules for use with Ironclads 1860 to 1918 
This set covers the American Civil War 
There are other sets to cover the period 1960 to 1890, 1890 to 1918 and the battle of Lisa and the Crimean War
A5 size rules book includes shooting charts. 

You don't need the main Ironclads 1860 to 1918 rules to play this war-game as all relevant rules are included in this set.

We will soon be making many of the 1/1200 scale models to go with these ship sheets. 

Rules come with turning circles, and pdf documents for speed counters, reload counters, Union and Confederate ships and fortifications sheets to cover the American Civil War. These rules also cover naval war in rivers, limited visibility, forts and shore defences, mines, spar torpedo boats and interaction with land forces. 

Please let me have your email address and I will send you the pdf files once you have bought the rules.
