From Warlord:
The giant battleships and vast carriers, some still in service 60 years on, are striking reminders of the clash of navies in the drama that was the second world war. Ships with magnificent names and service are remembered today, mainly with affection and often in awe. The Bismarck, Yamato, Ark Royal, Warspite, Hornet, Missouri, just a few names of capital ships that will live on in legend. And so, they should, they were huge vessels bristling with weaponry and capable of enormous destructive power, ships that earned their famous names by deeds.
There was another type of vessel which also served, they were not launched to cheering crowds by Presidents’ wives or Monarchs or Chancellors; they carried no name, but only a number, and few if any are remembered now. Indeed, almost all of them have disappeared forever, as have their brave skilful crews who not only had to fight the cruel seas but an active and dangerous enemy.
In Cruel Seas, you take on the role of a naval crew manning their fragile coastal craft as they head out day and night to take on both the sea and the enemy.
Command your flotilla of small ships as they head out to attack a convoy, drop off Commandoes for a behind-the-lines mission or task them with one of the other myriads of missions this small and versatile craft would perform.
Be it the Coastal waters of England or across the Channel to France, on to the Mediterranean waters or on further to the vast Island chains of the Pacific, Cruel Seas will ensure your small ships see plenty of adrenaline-fuelled action.
