Hunt for the Graf Spee

Hunt for the Graf Spee

2012·Paul Stuhlfaut

2 players
0 min
Medium weight: Teach it in one sitting

From BoardGameGeek

An LPS bonus mini-game. "World War II has broken out and a single German pocket battleship is supremely poised amid Allied shipping lanes to completely disrupt Allied naval preparations. Can a single ship, at once so powerful it can crush any convoy escort encountered, and so fast it can evade any more powerful force sent to sink it, succeed and vindicate the concept? Find out with this exciting game!" Hunt for the Graf Spee is an hex and counter game for two players. The British Player will try to locate and sink the Graf Spee. The German Player, whose sole unit it is, will try to locate and sink British Shipping while avoiding destruction. Movement is secretly plotted and units are placed on map after being successfully searched for. There is a small tactical subsystem to handle naval combat, similar to Minden Games Salvo (ships are firing full broadsides and maintaining range, or firing half broadsides and changing range)
