About the Game

For miniatures enthusiast or a cardboard wargamer, Larry Bond's Command at Sea naval warfare system, for WWII, emphasizes technical and historical accuracy, woven into a streamlined rules structure that keeps the action fast-paced and fun.

The Rising Sun, Vol. 1 in the series, covers the Pacific 1941-43. The boxed set now comes complete with the 3rd Edition Basic Rulebook (perforated for three ring binders) and the 2nd Edition Ship Data Annex enclosed. The 3rd Edition Scenario Book offers over 50 scenarios, from small ship actions, to carrier vs. carrier attacks, to midnight battleship encounters at Guadalcanal. Plus 140 ship counters (1/2" x 1") and over 280 aircraft counters and markers are included, along with a jump-start book to get you up and playing in less than half an hour.
