Atlantic Storm Admirals Edition with Neoprene Mat

The Battle for the Atlantic

After France fell in 1940 the convoys still had to cross. Hitler sent U-boats, bombers and warships to stop them, and by the end of 1943 the wolf packs were the ones being hunted.

You build task forces from British, American, German and Italian warships, submarines and aircraft, and take them into an auction nobody can see the bottom of.

There is a battle for every convoy, and you join whichever side you like by playing Allied or Axis force cards out of your hand. The winners keep the convoy and the losers' ships as spoils. Bluff, overcommit, or sit out and let two rivals ruin each other, and expect a lot of talking across the table while it happens.

What the Admiral's Edition Adds

Tarot-sized force cards. More convoys, and new ways to build the convoy deck. New events and force cards. More combat, and more chances to claim fate against somebody. Plus regular, team and chronological versions of the game.

Easy to Learn, Not Easy to Win

The rules go down in a few minutes. Reading the table takes considerably longer, which is the whole point of playing it again.

Or Play It Alone

Special rules for solitaire play set you against the campaign when there is nobody to bluff.

The Mat Comes With It

This edition includes a neoprene playmat with a smooth cloth top, a rubber base so it stays put, double stitched edges, and it goes in the machine when somebody spills something on it.

Everything you need is in the box. Atlantic Storm: Admiral's Edition is Ben Knight's card game of the Battle of the Atlantic from August 1940 to December 1943, and no other product is required to play it.
