Ares Games announces “Sails of Glory”

Ares Games, the game publisher of the “Wings of Glory” series of aerial combat games, announces a new game based upon that popular game system, with a completely new setting.

The game, to be called “Sails of Glory”, will recreate naval warfare in the Age of Sail (1650-1815). The “Wings of Glory” game system will be modified and expanded to represent accurately battles at sea between the large sailing ships of the past centuries.

Created by Andrea Angiolino and Andrea Mainini, “Sails of Glory” will merge miniatures, cards and board game mechanics, using the same intuitive system of “Wings of Glory”, which features a special deck of maneuver cards to represent the different movement capabilities of each model. The game will be supported by a range of painted and assembled 1/1200 miniatures.

The first series of “Sails of Glory”, scheduled to be released in Summer 2012, will be set in the Napoleonic Age. If the game is successful, in the future it will be extended to cover other historical periods, such as the Age of Discovery, the Middle Ages and ancient times.
