Miniature gamers looking for something a little different, yet still historical, might want to take a look at the new rules system, Master & Commander: Close Quarters, from Capitan Miniatures.
From Capitan:
Master & Commander: Close Quarters is a set of rules designed for playing boarding actions between Napoleonic ships. Now you can play in detail such famous actions as ‘Nelson’s Patent Bridge for Boarding First-Rates’ in the battle of Saint Vincent, follow Captain Decatur in a boarding action against Barbary Corsairs, or board the Royal Navy ships with the San Juan Neponucemo at Trafalgar
Fast, innovative and simple playing system. Designed to play with our ship boards, and Capitan Miniatures 18mm crews, all you need to play is downloable for free. The rule set is available as a free download (in multiple languages), as are print-and-play tokens, record sheets, and combat maps for eight different ship types.
