Are you the master of all commanders? Are you the scurviest of sea dogs? Have you ever secretly felt you?d have made a great pirate or could have defeated the great sea captains in a ship to ship duel?
Sailpower is a miniatures game that allows the players to take on the role of a captain in the Age of Sail. Command small ships, large ships or even a whole squadron. It’s your call!
