Blue Max / Wooden Ships and Iron Men - Talossan Airforce and Navy Training

[xpb]

There are a variety of board game simulation activities at http://www.youplay.it/

The primary one there that I enjoy is Wooden Ships and Iron Men, and to a lesser extent Blue Max and there are several other games presented there as well with no fixed cost to you (but the hope you may make a donation to the site to help keep it running)

Wooden Ships & Iron Men is a tactical simulation of naval warfare during the great age of sail. The game covers the period from 1776 to 1814 when the great square sail ships-of-the-line dominated the oceans and the speedy and durable American frigates gave world recognition to their young parent navy. The game is played by two or more players each commanding a ship, squadron, or whole fleet! Scenarios depict the famous naval engagements of the American and French Revolutions and the Napoleonic Wars. The game is also a kit from which other scenarios or any fictitious engagement may be designed.

Blue Max is a multi-player wargame of World War I aerial combat over the Western Front during 1917 and 1918. Each player is a fighter pilot of the British, French, American, or German air service. Each game is a single dogfight, in which players try to shoot down as many enemy planes as possible without being shot down themselves.
