Battle Stations

The War Games mode allows two players to compete against each other in 26 different locations, with options for war, capture the flag, or capture the harbor. Players can also choose between playing as a specific country or having a balanced or custom naval force, affecting the number of units of each ship type at the start of battle.

The game features eight types of ships, including aircraft carriers, destroyers, battleships, cruisers, patrol boats, mine layers, troop transports, and submarines. Each ship has different ratings in categories such as top speed, target range, hull strength, main guns, special weapon, and defensive weapon.

Gameplay involves moving ships strategically on an overhead map, with battles occurring when ships come close enough to each other. Players must maneuver a target reticule on their opponent's ship to attack while also trying to move out of the way of their opponents' attacks. Once a ship's health meter becomes empty, it is sunk.
