Watch “Chase of the Bismarck Gameplay | Vuca Simulations Sims | Wargame Historical Game | World War 2,” a gameplay video on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by Zilla Blitz on YouTube:

We show gameplay from The Chase of the Bismarck, the new World War 2 double-blind 2-player wargame (historical conflict simulation) from Vuca Simulations (Vuca Sims) and designed by Patrick Gebhardt, Jack Greene. If you'd like to support my work in creating more historical wargaming videos, I have a Patreon page. Support is greatly appreciated. https://www.patreon.com/zillablitz Known Errors: 1 - In the video, I mention that in the previous turn the German tankers were all spotted by random spotting. However, the designer has clarified that tankers do not roll for random spotting. This apparently must be a post-release change, because the rulebook has an example of a tanker rolling for random spotting. (This is hugely important, as it makes the tankers much harder to sink for the allies.) 2 - To the best of what I can glean from Board Game Geek, it looks like neither individual ships nor task forces may move if they conduct a Naval Patrol. I was under the assumption that Task Forces can move and patrol, while individual ships cannot, but this appears to be incorrect.

About The Chase of the Bismarck: Operation Rheinübung 1941, from BoardGameGeek:

The Chase of the Bismarck: Operation Rheinübung 1941 is played in turns, each representing nearly five hours of real time. In each turn, both players secretly move any or all ships and air units under their command on their own search board. Each player may then call out zones in which he has enough search factors to locate his opponent's ships. This is the “operational part of the game”. If opposing ships are discovered to be in the same zone, they may proceed to combat on the Battle Board. This is the “tactical part of the game”. Battle is resolved with a fairly simplified system, with both players moving on a map indicating the distance to their opponent's ships. The game ends if the Bismarck is sunk, arrives at a friendly port or the last turn of the game (evening of May 29th) has been played.
