About this game

This game offers a detailed view of a turn-of-the-century German battleship. It has an unusual board. When first unfolded, it shows a side view of the ship. Then two more panels fold down from the deckline to show the playing board: a red-on-white schematic of the ship's interior. The artwork is loosely based on the pre-dreadnought battleship Kaiser Wilhelm III, commission in 1898.

Rules

Players roll dice to move through a detailed schematic of the ship’s compartments. The 46-space track runs from a bunkroom in the bow to the engine room in the stern. First player to the engine room wins.
