Wars of the Blue Water is a tactical game of 21st-century naval warfare. Unlike similar titles which portray entire conflicts between nations, this game simulates quick and intensive engagements in hours at sea. Compare to traditional You-Go-I-Go style game sequence, players will find they have little control over the course of battles in this game. They will find themselves being forced to react to developing situations all the time. The most successful player would be the one could ride with the tide of uncertainties rather than against it with rigid plans. —description from the designer
