Age of Sail 2

Strategy and Wargaming Game from Talonsoft, by Akella

Naval strategy game. It features three historical campaigns beginning with the Seven Year's War and ending with the Napoleonic Wars. You advance through the ranks of the British, Russian or American navies. You command from a single ship to a whole fleet. The game aims to be historically accurate and some of the most famous naval battles are recreated, such as the Battle of Trafalgar. Once you begin to progress, you take on greater responsibilities, like assigning crew and stocking the ships. The pace of combat is pretty slow. The game employs a modified engine for Akella's other game 'Sea Dogs'. The 3D graphics, interface and controls are effective. The game offers a strong multi-player mode that supports up to 16 people (on-line or via LAN).
